In September 2025, YUM Liquid Gas LLC exported Ukrainian-produced liquefied biomethane (bio-LNG) to Germany by tanker trucks for the first time, according to industry analytical agency ExPro Daily Gas.
According to the agency’s estimates, the company exported almost 60 tons of liquefied biomethane in September-October. The buyer was Cyprus-based Preture Liquid Gas. According to YouControl, it is the founder of YUM Biogas Company. Therefore, both companies belong to the same group of companies.
YUM Liquid Gas LLC produces biomethane from biogas at its own Yuzhefo-Mykolaiv Biogas Plant (Vinnytsia region). Biogas is produced from sugar beet pulp and broiler chicken manure.
Thus, YUM Liquid Gas has become the second Ukrainian company to export bio-LNG and the fourth company to export biomethane from Ukraine.
As reported, Oril Leader, part of the MHP agricultural holding, also exports bio-LNG to Germany, having supplied almost 2,800 tons since May 2025.
On February 7, 2025, VITAGRO exported biomethane from Ukraine for the first time. On February 11, MHP joined it, and in June, Gals Agro made its first export of gaseous biomethane.
According to information from the Ukrainian Gas Transmission System Operator, as of mid-2025, there were four biomethane plants operating in Ukraine with a capacity of 41 million cubic meters of biomethane per year, three of which are already commercially supplying biomethane to the gas transmission system. By the end of 2025, biomethane producers plan to commission additional biomethane plants with a capacity of up to 70 million cubic meters of biomethane per year and bring the total capacity to 111 million cubic meters per year.
