1 Aims, objectives and achievements Regional Seminar Tartu of March 2011 Lennart Hallgren Project Manager 1

2 The Project: Baltic Biogas Bus is a part of the solution A project to stimulate the use of biogas as fuel for city buses aiming to reduce environmental impact. 2

3 BBB is a part of the EU Climate Change Strategy Extended use of Biogas buses in public transport will - lower emissions - improve urban air quality - strengthen the role of public transport - create energy autonomy Photo: SL/Mikael Hedlund

4 Goals and budget Generate regional strategies for biogas bus operations Developments in production, distribution and operations Disseminate biogas potential A Pan-Baltic project within the Baltic Sea Region Programme Period: Budget: 4,2 MEUR. Financing: Partly by the EU fund (ERDF) 4

10 Biogas buses in Bergen

11 Process framework 1) Understanding the decision making process 2) Goal and goal scenarios 3) Insight and documentation 4) Communication 5) Creating and developing alliances 11

12 Conclusion from HOG Energi s work in Bergen Decision from Hordaland County Council: 75 new gas buses to be purchased in Bergen Climate Plan for Hordaland county states that use of biogas and other renewable energy sources will be increased towards Biogas will be a priority in public transportation Decision from Bergen City Council: Produced biogas from Rådalen production facility shall be used in the public transport sector 12

14 Strategies for Tartu City Transport development plan Research for potential biogas production, distribution and usage Feasibility study of biogas buses Awareness, dissemination of the potential for sustainable city transports and biogas 14

15 Life cycle costs analysis Bus usage Biogas Generation Upgrading Distribution 20 km Refilling 2 50 buses Biogas -investment ~5 M -specific cost 21 c/km - investment ~2 M - specific cost 7 c/km - by vehicle CBG 3 c/km - investment ~2.4 M - specific cost 18 c/km - investment ~270 k - specific cost 70 c/km cumulative 21 c/km cumulative 28 c/km cumulative 31 c/km cumulative 49 c/km cumulative 119 c/km Diesel Diesel production, refining, distribution and refilling specific cost 45 c/km - investment ~230 k - specific cost 59 c/km cumulative 104 c/km Cost of biomethane as fuel approx. 14 % higher than diesel, immature market

16 Greenhouse gas emissions Well-to-wheel, according to the RES directive Specific emissions of well-to-wheel chain for natural gas, diesel and biomethane made from different substrates g CO2eq/km 2000 TTW 1500 WTT Municipal waste WTT = Well-to-tank = from biogas generation to refilling TTW = Tank-to-wheel = from bus usage Wet manure Dry manure Natural gas Diesel

17 How to start a Biogas Market for traffic operators? Studies of biogas possibilities in the Stockholm region Co-operation between biogas producers and distributers Contracts Operation Legal agreements Procurment 17

19 Aim of Study Develop a knowledge base on biogas infrastructure in BSR countries in a manner that is useful to identify the influence that existing and planned infrastructure have on introduction of biogas as a transport fuel in BSR countries. Objectives Study biogas infrastructure overview Map biogas production and distribution Analyze the influence of infrastructure on introducing biogas as a vehicle fuel Discuss barriers and opportunities to promote biogas
