Gasum has opened a biogas filling station in Bærum, west of Oslo, expanding its biogas infrastructure in Norway. The biogas filling station, built in cooperation with landowner Eiendomsspar, offers compressed and liquefied biogas in response to an increased demand for sustainable fuels in Norway.
The Skui station is Gasum’s seventh liquid bio gas (LBG) filling station in Norway and the 50th LBG filling station in the Nordic countries.
Gasum have collaborated with landowner Eiendomsspar and logistics company Gunnar Knutsen to open the station. Gunnar Knutsen has been testing the filling station since August, and is now open to all users.
Jogeir Munkeby, sales manager for Traffic Norway at Gasum says: ‘This is an important step in continuing to develop the infrastructure around Oslo and make it possible to drive on biogas all over southern Norway by the end of 2025. By expanding the Nordic gas filling station network, we can also provide new opportunities for local companies to substantially lower their emissions.’
Christian Ringnes, owner and chairman of Eiendomsspar adds: ‘It’s fantastic to be able to contribute to the green transition in such a concrete and positive way as a new biogas station in collaboration with Gasum.’
