1 Biogas, the natural choice for city buses Erfarenheter från Baltic Biogas Bus projektet Europadagarna, Bryssel, 5-6 November 2012 Lennart Hallgren Stockholm Public Transport 1

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

3 Traffic, a large-scale green house driver The transport-sector accounts for 70% of CO2 emissions Congestion and local emissions Oil & Gas reserves decreases 3

4 Public transport is a part of the solution Offer an attractive public transport service Increase the market share A sustainable public transport on bio fuels 4

5 Biogas a part of the solution - the best biofuel available Environmental benefits Reduction of CO 2 emissions Reduction of pollutants Benefits for the society Locally produced from waste - a strategic energy source Regional development and employment opportunities Sustainable waste management 5

society Locally produced from waste - a strategic energy source Regional

6 Goals & Budget Strategies for more biogas buses in the region Development of production, distribution and operation Dissemination of biogas potential Project organisation A Pan-Baltic project within the Baltic Sea Region Programme Budget: 4,2 mill. EUR Financed partly by the European regional Development fund (ERDF) 6

organisation A Pan-Baltic project within the Baltic Sea Region Programme 2007-2012

13 Developments and improvements in Stockholm A well documented biogas system, improvements New buses have more efficient engines, lower maintanance costs Positive learning curve, Improved knowledge in the workshops A gas grid in Stockholm will lower biogas costs and stimulate more production of biogas Biogas is the best alternative when environmental costs is included Costs of biogas 13

knowledge in the workshops A gas grid in Stockholm will lower biogas costs and stimulate more

14 Contributions to the EU 2020 objectives Reduction of CO2 and increased share of renewable energy 400 (bio) gas buses, more will come Will reduce diesel use by > 11 million litres / year Reduced fossil CO 2 by > tonnes / year Local emissions reduced > NOx 140, PM, 2 tonnes/year Production and use of biogas, creates new sustainable jobs

million litres / year Reduced fossil CO 2 by > 35 000 tonnes / year Local emissions

15 Communicating the project results increasing knowledge and awareness Seminars 25 seminars in the Baltic Sea region More than participants, politicans, decision makers and stakeholders Articles, media 30 articles, readers Radio & TV broadcasts Newsletters

000 participants, politicans, decision makers and stakeholders Articles, media

16 More than 30 biogas studies are published on the BBB website

17 Biogas improves life in the Baltic Sea region Core messages Biogas is renewable Biogas is very efficient as fuel Biogas improves air quality and climate Biogas produced locally improves energy autonomy and creates jobs 17

improves air quality and climate Biogas produced locally

18 We have together made the Baltic Sea Region a better place to live, work and invest in. Cooperation, the key to success 18
