Bergen – Biogas treatment plant

The Bergen biogas plant in Bergen, Norway, produces methane gas which is used as fuel for buses in the municipality. The plant collects sludge from sewage treatment plants in the municipality and produces methane from it. About 42.000 tonnes of wet sludge is expected to flow through the plant each year. When the factory is at full capacity, it can produce methane gas that is capable of running 80 buses.

The factory was inaugarated on October 21th, 2016.
