2. 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.
3. Green Gas
Programme: INTERREG IV A „Germany - Netherland“,
Period: 01-2012 – 01-2015
Budget: ca. € 10.000.000
Partners: ca. 60 partners from the governmental,
academical and private sector
Goals: technical innovation and knowledge share
with regards to the whole value chain. Study on
potentials of green gas in the border region.
4. Biogas to Move
Programme: INTERREG Vb „North Sea Region“
Period: 06-2015 – 06-2018
Budget: ca. € 3 – 6 Mio
Partners:
NL: Provincie Drenthe (Leadpartner)
NL: Provincie Groningen, CCS BV, Energy Valley Foundation,
D: Landwirtschaftskammer Niedersachsen, 3-N, Climate Centre North (t.b.a.)
DK: Landbo Limfjord
SK: Energikontoret Skåne
Be : PON West-Vlaanderen
Timeline: to be submitted spring 2015
5. 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 cases
- Investments in the field of demonstration
6. 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
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
