Nordion Energi and St1 signing biogas supply agreement for Sweden

In Sweden, Nordion Energi and St1 are signing an agreement to supply more biogas to the transport and industrial sectors. Nordion Energi is planning a new facility in the Port of Gothenburg where biogas will be liquefied and transported to customers in different parts of the country. It aims to replace fossil fuels in shipping, heavy road transport and industries. As part of the cooperation, St1 will purchase parts of the capacity.

The plant in the Port of Gothenburg will be the first of its kind to be directly connected to the West Swedish gas network. After liquefaction, the liquefied biogas is temporarily stored in a tank before onward delivery to the customer, either by loading onto trailers or by being directly bunkered as ship fuel via a pipeline.

The plant will be able to liquefy 250 GWh of biogas annually. The capacity not used by St1 will be available to other actors who need to restructure their activities. Investment decisions for the facility are scheduled to be taken before the end of the year.
