Construction of the plant will begin in autumn 2025, with commissioning planned for 2026. Once operational, the facility will produce up to 70GWh bio-LNG (or LBG) per year. The renewable fuel will be distributed by Redo Biosolutions AB, who will use it to decarbonize road transport in Sweden.
Biogas Västra Skaraborg AB collects both liquid and solid manure from farms across the municipalities of Grästorp, Essunga, and Vara. In total, the plant will process around 370,000 tons of manure per year as feedstock for biogas production. This biogas will be upgraded and liquefied into LBG with the support of two technology partners: Nordsol and EnviTec Biogas.
EnviTec Biogas will deliver its EnviThan upgrading technology to convert the raw biogas into biomethane. Nordsol’s Core technology will then take over, further purifying and liquefying the gas into LBG. The systems will be tightly integrated to ensure low energy consumption, prevent methane slip, and allow for easy, reliable operation, all within a compact footprint. This setup is ideally suited for decentralized LBG production, right at the source of the feedstock.
“This project marks our first step into Sweden – a country with a strong vision for sustainable mobility,” said Léon van Bossum, CEO of Nordsol. “It’s a privilege to support Biogas Västra Skaraborg AB and its network of farmers in turning local waste streams into clean transport fuel. Our LBG technology helps create real value from biogas; for climate, for transport, and for the local community. LBG is now!”
