Gasum delivers liquified biogas to Svalbard airport for emission reductions in power generation
Svalbard is the northernmost and most remote location Gasum has delivered biogas to. Airport operator Avinor chose Gasum’s premium product Biogas Plus which substantially reduces greenhouse gas emissions.Norwegian state-owned company Avinor has developed a biogas turbine concept for heating and electricity for the Longyearbyen airport at Svalbard. As part of this energy transition, Gasum now supplies liquified biogas (LBG) to the airport.
Svalbard is a Norwegian territory comprised of a group of islands between mainland Norway and the North Pole. It is one of the northernmost
Gasum has begun work on building a new gas filling station in the municipality of Keminmaa in northern Finland. Construction work will take around six months and the goal is to open the station to users by the end of this year.When completed, the Keminmaa filling station will be the first gas filling station in Finnish Lapland, Gasum’s northernmost filling station and the northernmost liquefied biogas (LBG) filling station in Europe. Gasum recently opened its second northernmost station in Luleå, Sweden.
The Keminmaa station will provide both liquefied and compressed biogas, thereby
A recent survey analyzed how environmental issues are viewed by Finnish and Swedish heavy-duty vehicle (HDV) fleet owners. According to the results, customers’ environmental expectations have increased in both Finland and Sweden, and 82% of fleet owners in both countries agree that an environment-focused mindset is a permanent phenomenon and not a passing trend. Liquefied natural gas (LNG) and liquefied biogas (LBG) are low-emission fuel alternatives for road transport that are also cost effective.The Nordic energy company Gasum commissioned Value Clinic to conduct a survey on how Finnish
The Seinäjoki gas filling station was opened on August 21, 2019 in Roves industrial area at Piirturinväylä 1. This new Gasum filling station serves customers with heavy-duty road vehicles and passenger cars by offering environmentally friendly and inexpensive biogas and natural gas fuel. The transport use of gas is growing considerably and plays an important role in the achievement of national and international emission reduction targets.The strong growth in the number of gas-fueled vehicles is continuing on Finland’s roads. Gasum is responding to the demand by expanding its gas filling
The gas filling station network in Finland is growing rapidly at key transport hubs. A second gas filling station has already been opened in Lahti to respond to growing demand. The latest gas filling station is at Linnaistentie 2 in the Kujala district of Lahti and in particular serves heavy-duty road transport with liquefied natural gas (LNG) and liquefied biogas (LBG). The station also serves gas cars with compressed natural gas and biogas. Expansion of the gas filling station network in the Lahti area also supports the city’s objective to be a carbon-neutral city already in 2025.The
Gasum and Lidl Finland are cooperating to produce environmentally friendly and local biogas from biowaste generated at Lidl grocery stores. Lidl is also introducing a truck powered by liquefied biogas that is fueled with biogas produced from Lidl stores’ own waste. The biogas-powered truck will help Lidl reduce its emissions by an annual total of up to 193 tonnes.The grocery store chain Lidl and the energy company Gasum are partnering to promote the circular economy. As part of their collaboration, Lidl will deliver its stores’ biowaste to biogas plants where they are used to produce
