Bio Gas to Move - Motivation

From experiences made in many biogas projects, amongst others the Dutch-

German BIORES and the “majeure GreenGas”-project (Interreg IV-A

Germany-Netherlands programme) and during the biogas- conference in April

2012 in Copenhagen, the following aspects were made clear:

The NL, D, DK and SK are all frontrunners in the field of

Biogas especially between DK/SK � other countries, there is little

knowledge concerning each other’s developments. Experience has

shown that the value chain approach gets too little attention. Studies

have shown that the sustainability of mobility needs a lot more attention

in order to meet the \ European and national environmental goals.

Green Gas

Timeline: to be submitted spring 2015

Goals

- CO2 reduction and regional added value

- the investigation of the entire value chain with the

help of the participating partner regions and to visualize it by the use of example use casesvisualize it by the use of example use cases

- Investments in the field of demonstration

Activities

- The increase of biogas usage in the transportation sector, in the right fields and the right applications

- Research on financial incentives for the application of biogas as a transport fuel

- Studies and calculations of possibilities in example regios- Studies and calculations of possibilities in example regios

and applications (potentially in 4 pilot regions in the 4 countries)

- Network and contacts in the entire biogas value chain

(agriculture – operator – gas upgrade – automobile/truck technology – user) to register the conditions

- Information transfer to the target group as well as politics

- Biofuel tour North sea
