Work begins on Europe’s first liquid biogas refuelling station
Supported by Cryostar, a specialist in cryogenic equipment, AGA Gas AB has built Europe’s first liquid to compressed biogas (LCBG) refuelling station in the city of Sundsvall, Sweden.

AGA Gas AB, a member of The Linde Group, has built, owns and operates the refuelling station, which has a capacity of 530 Nm3/h.

Work started on the station on 1st July, and when it is fully up and running, Sundsvall will be the first city in the world with the ability to fill vehicles with LCBG.

1. Their installation of liquid biofuel filling stations has the sincere gratitude
of everyone on the planet, with the possible exception of Sumatran Tigers, Sumatran Rhinos, Orangatans and the other animals whose habitat was destroyed to make way for palm oil plantations to serve the German "Renewable Fuel Portfolio Standards."

2. Gosh, your comments have nothing to do with the original post.
Sweden not Germany & biogas made from leftovers and poo.
$200 per month for electricity...I see you are no doing your part to save the planet.

3. could someone please explain what their claim is?
liquid fuel is more valuable than
a fuel that is a gas.

4. Its a way of storing the gas.
The gas is cooled till it becomes a liquid. This greatly reduces the volume. Liquefied biogas takes up about 1/600 the volume as the gas.
