DVGW-Technical Rule [PUBLISHED]

G 265-1 (A)
Plants for the Upgrading and Injection of Biogas into Gas Supply Grids - Part 1: Design, Manufacture, Construction, Testing and Commissioning

Title (German)

Anlagen für die Aufbereitung und Einspeisung von Biogas in Gasversorgungsnetze - Teil 1: Planung, Fertigung, Errichtung, Prüfung und Inbetriebnahme

Brief description

This Technical Rule G 265-1 applies to the planning, manufacture, installation, testing and commissioning of systems for upgrading biogases to the quality of natural gas1 and to systems for feeding these gases into gas transportation and distribution systems that are operated with gases of the 2nd gas family in accordance with G 260. It also applies to systems for feeding these gases back into stored gas supply networks. This DVGW Code of Practice specifies the safety requirements for the systems mentioned in paragraph 1. The requirements for compressors can also be applied to the blowers upstream of the biogas upgrading plant. With regard to the requirements for feeding biogas into networks for supplying the general public with gas, DVGW worksheets G 260, G 262 and G 2000, among others, must be observed. This worksheet can also be used for systems for feeding in gas produced from other regenerative sources, e.g. hydrogen, which in its composition belongs to the2. gas family according to DVGW Code of Practice G 260.
