Scandinavian Biogas Fuels International AB (publ) Builds A Large-Scale Biogas Plant in Mönsterås, Sweden. The facility is built in collaboration with local farmers and will produce liquefied biogas with manure as feedstock. The production capacity is estimated to be 120 GWh, and the production is planned to start in Fourth Quarter 2024.

Mönsterås is located in Kalmar County, and is characterized by many agricultural facilities where the production generates manure in large quantities that may limit operations. By using manure as feedstock for biogas production, a sustainable cycle is created while it allows the farmers to further grow their operations. Swedish Environmental Protection Agency's Climate Leap Initiative granted the project SEK 154 million in economic support in 2021, which is within the framework of announced growth and production capacity targets for the year 2024.

The project provides an excellent rate of emission reduction per invested SEK. The liquefied biogas will mainly be sold as fuel to the transport sector where 120 GWh is the equivalent of 12 million liters of diesel. The refined biofertilizer will mainly be used in the local agricultural production in order to maintain a sustainable cycle.

The biogas project in Mönsterås was initiated by local farmers in 2016, and Scandinavian Biogas got involved two years ago. The parties formed a jointly owned company with the responsibility to design, build, and manage the planned biogas plant. Scandinavian Biogas owns an estimated 86% of the production company Scandinavian Biogas Mönsterås AB, while the remaining 17% is owned by the local farmers through their company Mönsterås Biogas AB.
