BIOGAS AS VEHICLE FUEL - Conference in Germany, 25th March
The utilisation of biogas as vehicle fuel has been sucessfully implemented in several European countries for years. In Germany, the utilisation path «vehicle fuel» hasn't been established yet. In the European research project BIOGASMAX the whole production chain from the generation of biogas up to the utilisation of biomethane in vehicles has been evaluated and successful project examples from Sweden, Switzerland, France and Italy have been demonstrated.
BIOGAS UPGRADING TO BIOMETHANE - Conference in Germany, 23rd 24th March
The upgrading of biogas to biomethane for feed-in to the natural gas grid or for use as vehicle fuel is gaining in interest and importance worldwide. More than 100 plants are already in operation and many are under construction or in the planning stage. During this conference we will elucidate the state of biogas upgrading worldwide. A special feature of the first day will be the get-together of those plant manufacturers who have constructed more than 90 % of all biogas upgrading plants in...
Market Report on Biomethane: Technologies and Costs of Conditioning Biogas and Feed-in into the Natural Gas Network
The German biomethane market is growing rapidly due to ambitious targets for biogas feed-in set by the German government: by 2020 60 billion kWh of natural gas are planned to be substituted by biogas. By the end of 2009, 30 upgrading plants will be feeding in about 3% of this target, in 2010 it will be 50 plants and 6%...
The Falköping Model - Excel based calculation model now available
The Falköping Model enables users to estimate market demand for biomethane in a region from evolving gas vehicle fleets and estimate supply capabilities from a range of production and distribution facilities. It takes a system perspective to model multiple actors across a 15 year time-span, allowing users to examine (and fine-tune!) the economic and environmental performance of the whole biomethane system, and its component parts.
BIOGASMAX partners give lectures on biomethane
Michael Beil (Fraunhofer IWES) and Jan Paul Lindner (University of Stuttgart) gave a three-hour lecture on biomethane at a workshop for international students in Darmstadt, Germany, on November 29th, 2009. The lecture was the last in a series of lectures in a "STUBE Hessen" seminar on renewable energy. "STUBE Hessen" is an educational programme parallel to university for international students (mostly from developing countries) in the federal state of Hesse, Germany.

The European Commission has hosted a high-level conference in Brussels on the future of the European transport system. The November 20th event marked the closing of two public consultations that the Commission launched in June 2009 with its Communication 'A sustainable future for transport' and its Green Paper 'Trans-European transport network: A policy review'. During the stakeholder meeting on "A sustainable future for transport" NGVA Europe insisted on the benefits of natural gas and...
Daily Iveco GNV "Green Van of the Year 2009"
The light duty commercial vehicle Iveco Daily driven with gas (biomethane or natural gas) was awarded « « Green Van of the Year 2009 » in alternative fuels category, during the Fleet Van Awards held in London this autumn. This vehicle is able to reduce by 62% CO2 emissions when compared with a Diesel-equivalent, which makes this vehicle meets EURO 6 emissions standard, which is the first case in Europe. It is run with a Power train 3 litters including storage capacity of 224 litters of...
