Several Swedish PTAs and bus companies are looking for the right equipment to convert their buses to a liquefied bio-methane gas (LBG) and Dual Fuel concept. The goal is to convert current diesel buses to operate primarily on bio-methane. If the right technology is obtained, a pilot test will be carried out during 2009. If the test is successful, the concept will be implemented on a large scale.

Extract:

Swebus AB, a company within the Concordia-concern, have intentions to test a new concept for their buses. The goal is to convert existing diesel buses to a fuel system consisting of liquefied bio-methane gas (LBG) and dual fuel technology. The intended project corresponds well with the environmental goals of Swebus AB, whose Swedish bus fleet consists of approximately 2500 buses. In addition to Swebus AB, Gamla Uppsala Buss AB and several other companies are part of the project. For example, the supply of LBG during the project will be provided by ScandinavianGtS AB LBG production plants, and falls under present master plan agreement between Upplands Lokaltrafik and Scandinavian Biogas AB/ ScandinavianGtS AB.
