Biogas fuel
Among the bio fuels, biogas can play a part in the reduction of the dependence on transport based on fossil fuels because it is a renewable energy
Since 1994, buses in Lille (North of France) experienced biogas fuel, a refined bio-methane and placed at the disposal of buses running to natural gas.
In Sweden there exist 10 production units of biogas fuel (Linköpping and Uppsala) which feeds at the same time buses and private vehicles. Biogas comes from a unit of waste co-digestion of agricultural origin and allows feeding a fleet from 40 to 66 buses and 20 to 40 vehicles. Projects currently exist in France also for the Blue Taxis.
