History biogas production Uppsala
Prestudy 1993/94 for available biomass in UppsalaDecision for biogas production, as a method for handling waste, was taken by the city council as part ofthe waste management plan in 1994

Critical success factors for the devlopment of the bioenergy basedtransport system
1. Long-term investment2. Long-term agreement between several critical
parties3. Holistic system approach4. Consistent strategy regardless of political majority5. Public actors first to transform towards biogased
based transports6. Engagement amongst Uppsala citizens
Continous information towards citizens
Your waste is not rubbish
What you put in your garbage is of great importance. Right sorted, your waste is a valuable resource that is used in new products or energy. For example, your food scraps into biogas that powers our city buses
Short term Plans (2014-15) for Biogas
1. Expansion of production plant (new pellet boiler)2. Further expasion of biobased fuels, phasing out
LNG3. Complete transfer of waste water resources to
biobased fuels4. Regional long-term biogas strategy finalized
Challenges going forward towards a biobased economy1. Long-term and reliable biomass availability2. Balance the extraction of biomass without compromising
the environment3. Long-term profitability for investors4. Technology development and ability to manage
transformational changes5. Political decisions on national and EU-level6. Most effective strategies for biomass usage (food, energy
& material)7. Handling of the powerful forces that strive to maintain the
status quo
