CALSTART Biomethane AB 118 Biofuels Workshop 9 09
1. Taking Advantage of the Lowest Carbon Fuel: Building the CA Biomethane Industry Advanced Transportation Technologies John Boesel President and CEO AB 118 Biofuels Workshop September 15, 2009 Clean Transportation Solutions SM
2. Natural Gas = Biogas But with Some Important Exceptions Less GHG Emissions Net zero or negative GHG Emissions Both Good for Air Quality! Fossil Fuel Renewable Fuel Methane Natural gas Biogas
3. Green-Gas Principle â âGreening the Gas Pipelineâ Biogas Natural gas Residential housing Industries Filling stations
5. Linkoping â The Bakersfield of Biomethane Digester where raw products breaks down and produces methane Off-the-Shelf Equipment is Used to Upgrade Digester Gas to Transportation Quality Biomethane
8. Sales of Methane Gas for Vehicles in Sweden 21 % growth annually 55 % biogas Biogas Natural gas Total
9.
10. 1,400,000 km natural gas grid in 32 countries Biomethane can be distributed in the gas grid to the consumers A wide range of biomass feedstock & high efficient production both from digestion and gasification 600 000 CNG vehicles already in traffic 2000 existing fueling stations for CNG and CBG Liquified biomethane will play a important role By 2030 Biomethane Could Replace 25-35 % of Fossil Fuels Used for Road Transport in Europe
