.. The features listed below are not released yet, but will be part of the next release!
.. To use the features already you have to use the ``master`` branch.

* Added biomethanation technologies (biological methanation of biogas/H2 as an alternative to the Sabatier reaction). (https://github.com/PyPSA/technology-data/pull/257)
