Building the future of biogas in the Nordics
Increased production and distribution of biogas in the Nordic region
St1 Biokraft has ambitious targets; by 2030, we aim to produce 3 TWh and distribute 6 TWh of biogas and biomethane. In our project pipeline, we have several projects for biogas and biomethane production, as well as fueling stations for liquid biogas (LBG). Read more about our projects here!
Skånes Fagerhult, Sweden
Skånes Fagerhult is an urban area in the municipality of Örkelljunga in Skåne, located right by the E4 highway. The community is surrounded by beautiful nature, with beech forests situated right next to residential areas.
Convert manure and residual products into biogas
St1 Biokraft is planning to build a production facility for liquid biogas (LBG) in this area. The gas will primarily be generated from manure from local animal husbandry. In addition to manure, other residual products from agriculture and food production will also be utilized.
The production is expected to commence in mid 2028 and will generate approximately 130 GWh, equivalent to the energy content of just over 13 million liters of diesel. The plant is expected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by producing biogas that can replace fossil fuels. Additionally, the facility will produce 300,000 to 400,000 tons of high-quality biogas digestate for the region's agriculture.
Facts
Capacity: 130 GWh (LBG)
Main substrate: Manure
Status: Investment decision by Q1 2027.
Planned production start: Q2 2029
Government support: Klimatklivet

Mönsterås, Sweden
Mönsterås, located in Kalmar County, is one of the country's most densely populated municipalities in terms of livestock. Many farmers in the area are seeking new solutions to enhance and expand their operations in a sustainable manner. Based on this, St1 Biokraft have built a biogas plant that is producing liquid biogas and sanitized biogas digestate by recycling farmers' manure. The plant has been developed in close cooperation with Mönsterås Biogas, a collection of local farmers.
Abundant availability of substrate and strong local support
Mönsterås is a fantastic location for this type of project, with ample availability of substrate combined with strong local support and committed partners. The intended customers include major fuel station companies, industrial and maritime actors, as well as larger European energy companies.
The biogas plant will convert manure from cattle, pig, chicken, and egg production in the area into liquid biogas (LBG) and various types of refined biofertilizers. The facility is designed for an annual production of 125 GWh of biogas and approximately 250,000 tons of high-quality biofertilizer in different fractions, both in liquid and solid forms.
Facts
Capacity: 125 GWh (LBG)
Main substrate: Manure
Status: Under ramp-up
Production start: Q2 2025

Västerlösa, Sweden
Västerlösa is a town in the western part of Linköping Municipality in Östergötland. The area mainly consists of farmland with some forest and small watercourses.
Transforming Manure and Agricultural By-products into Biogas and Biofertiliser
St1 Biokraft will build a production facility for liquefied biogas (LBG). The gas will primarily be produced from manure from livestock in the area. In addition to manure, other agricultural and food production by-products will also be utilized.
Production is expected to begin in the end of 2029 and will produce approximately 230 GWh, equivalent to the energy content of 20-25 million liters of diesel. The annual CO2 reduction is estimated at 73,000 tons. The facility will also produce 400,000-500,000 tons of high-quality biofertiliser for the region's agriculture.
Facts
Capacity: 230 GWh (LBG)
Main substrate: Manure
Status: Investment decision by the end of 2027
Planned production start: End of 2029
Government support: Klimatklivet

Perstorp, Sweden
Perstorp is a locality in Perstorp Municipality in Skåne, Sweden, where the industrial group Perstorp AB was founded more than 140 years ago and continues to be a major industrial player. The community is surrounded by beautiful nature. Outside the urban area, Perstorp AB operates an industrial park which is suitable for the establishment of a biogas plant, both in terms of location and access to industrial infrastructure such as access to electricity, water and sewerage, heat and more.
Convert manure and residues into biogas
Here, St1 Biokraft plans to build a production plant for biogas connected to the gas grid, in order to make the gas available to customers in western Sweden and northern Europe. The gas will mainly be produced from manure from animal husbandry in the area. In addition to fertilizer, other residual products from agriculture and food production will also be utilized.
Production is expected to begin in 2028 and will produce about 130 GWh, or the equivalent energy content of just over 13 million litres of diesel. The plant is expected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by producing biogas that can replace fossil fuels. The plant will also produce high-quality biofertiliser for the region's agriculture. Furthermore, separated biogenic CO2 will be upgraded and liquefied to replace CO2 of fossil origin.
Facts
Planned Capacity: 130 GWh (LBG) and 17,000 tonnes of liquid CO2
Main substrate: Manure
Status: Investment decision in 2026.
Planned production start-up in 2028
Government support: Klimatklivet

Falkenbergs biogas, Sweden
Falkenberg biogas is a joint venture with St1 Biokraft (65%), Falkenberg Municipality (20%) and Ullared Gekås (15%). The production started in 2008.
Current production is about ca 35 GWh biomethane each year from manure and organic waste from households, restaurants, slaughterhouses etc. The plant capacity shall be extended to 70 GWh biomethane each year. The plant also produces biofertilisers.
More information on the existing plant: www.falkenbergsbiogas.se.
Facts of the expansion
Capacity: 35 GWh/year
Feedstock: Manure and food waste from households and industry
The project awaits an update on the environmental permit and decision on subsidy from Klimatklivet before final investment decision.

Kalmar, Sweden
St1 Biokraft plans to build and operate a facility for the production of liquefied biogas (LBG), liquefied carbon dioxide (LCO₂) and biofertiliser in Vassmolösa, south of Kalmar in Kalmar Municipality. The facility is also planned to receive compressed biogas (CBG) from other biogas producers in the local area for further liquefaction into LBG. The project has been granted both an environmental permit and a detailed development plan, and the decisions have gained legal force.
The facility’s main substrate will be manure from cattle, pig and poultry production in Kalmar County and the surrounding area. Kalmar County is one of Sweden’s most livestock-dense counties, which means there is good access to manure.
Production at the facility is planned to start in 2029–2030. The facility will have the capacity to produce approximately 120 GWh of liquefied biogas (LBG) and approximately 13,500 tonnes of liquefied carbon dioxide (LCO₂) per year. In addition, high-quality biofertiliser will be produced for return to agriculture.
The annual reduction in greenhouse gas emissions is estimated to amount to approximately 46,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalents.
