Biogas producers join forces to produce bio-LNG

German company BALANCE Erneuerbare Energien GmbH (BALANCE) is to collaborate on a joint venture with biogas specialist EnviTec Biogas AG to produce carbon dioxide (CO2)-free bio-liquefied natural gas (LNG).

Planned for construction in Brandenburg, near Berlin, the partner’s new bio-LNG liquefaction plant will provide renewable fuel for commercial and heavy-duty transport, including filling capabilities for tanker trucks.

The deal marks a milestone in the decarbonisation of the transport sector for the two companies.
