Re: Tankställen i Finland

Today (18.12.) the requirement for operator specific fuel cards ended in the Finnish biogas filling stations. Now payment by cash or credit cards is possible in all public filling stations (now 24).

Re: Tankställen i Finland

I have very much been irritated that in most parts of Sweden and Germany biogas filling stations are marked by CNG signs, i.e. renewable energy source is called fossil energy. This spring Energigas Sverige changed the nice technology neutral balloon markers in their web filling station map to CNG ma...

En lösning till biogasbrist

One partial solution to the occasional gas shortages in Stockholm and elsewhere in Sweden is to begin importing it from Finland. Production of upgraded biogas is growing much faster than consumption in Finland meaning that more and more of it is used for power and heat production instead of transpor...

Teknikneutral vokabulär för metan bränslen

Why is biogas in many countries sold as CNG and not CBG? Why in the European Commission alternative transport fuel strategies and legislative proposals the technologies to be promoted are electricity, hydrogen and natural gas instead of electricity, hydrogen and methane? Why are methane cars markete...

Re: Global gasbilsguide för modellåret 2011

I agree. The Östersund guide is very good! I also have published a global guide (in December 2012). Difference is that it is not about methane cars only, but all types of methane vehicles, i.e. cars, vans, trucks, buses, motorcycles and other light vehicles, mobile working engines, rail vehicles, sh...

Re: 100 % Biogas försäljningsargument!

For me it is very important that I buy 100 % renewable energy for my car. Just like it is important that I buy 100 % renewable electricity for my household use. I see no difference here. I wonder, why there are so many people buying 100 % renewable electricity, but not buying 100 % renewable transpo...

Historia av biogasanvändning inom transportsektorn

I have made a study on the history of biogas and many other gaseous fuels in transport applications from the early 19th century to the present day. It includes statistics of biogas use in public transport in Stockholm in the 1940s. The study can be downloaded at http://www.stromstadakademi.se/AAS-19...
