The environmental dimension Vehicle gas In the Biogas Väst project, BRG is helping Volvo, Göteborg Energi and some other companies to create a market for biogas-fuelled vehicles. This will lead to more eco-vehicles and an ecocycle in the waste and agriculture sectors, where biogas is produced, and four sectors win tangible new “green" markets (vehicles, energy, waste, and agriculture). Result: About 30 filling stations for vehicle gas, 7,000 gas-fueled vehicles, investments totaling 2.6 billion SEK and biogas production equivalent to 120 Gwh.
