Furetank secures biogas supply as step towards fossil-free shipping

Liquefied biogas is one of the keys to fossil-free shipping – but lack of supply is a major issue. The Swedish shipping company Furetank has signed a letter of intent with Eskilstuna Biogas, enabling the development of a new biogas plant producing around 5,000 tonnes of LBG annually.

Flytande biogas är en av nycklarna till framtidens fossilfria sjöfart – men bristande tillgång är ett stort problem. Nu skriver Donsörederiet Furetank och Eskilstuna Biogas en avsiktsförklaring som gör det möjligt att bygga en ny anläggning som producerar runt 5 000 ton flytande biogas årligen.
