Costs have until now been the main obstacle for more production and use of biogas.
Kostnadene har til nå vært det største hinderet for mer produksjon og bruk av biogass.
For this reason, NOK 8 million of the Climate and Environment Ministry budget will be set aside for a competition to build a pilot plant for biogas based on other raw materials than waste.
Det settes derfor av åtte millioner på klima- og miljødepartementets budsjett til en konkurranse om å bygge et pilotanlegg for biogass basert på andre råstoffer enn avfall.
This will help reduce the cost of production and thus achieve greater emission reductions in the future.
Dette skal bidra til å redusere kostnadene ved produksjonen og dermed få til større utslippsreduksjoner i fremtiden.
A further NOK 2 million is being allocated to research related to the plant.
Videre setter vi av to millioner kroner til forskning i tilknytning til dette anlegget.
As announced in the budget, Transnova’s tasks will now come under Enova.
Som varslet i statsbudsjettet, samles oppgavene til Transnova under Enova.
This will mean a more comprehensive assessment of potential projects and a more coordinated use of implementation tools.
Dette vil bety en mer helhetlig vurdering av potensielle prosjekter og en mer koordinert virkemiddelbruk.
“We have already seen several players take the initiative in the use of biogas.
-Vi har allerede sett at flere aktører gå foran med bruk av biogass.
I opened a new production plant in Hadeland in June 2014, and I have learned about the measures for heavy vehicles taken by the Post Office and ASKO.
Jeg åpnet et nytt produksjonsanlegg på Hadeland i juni 2014, og jeg har lært om Posten og ASKOs satsinger på tunge kjøretøy.
Østfold has been a leading county with its 100 biogas buses in Fredrikstad and Sarpsborg, and Oslo City Council has opened a production facility at Nes,” said Sundtoft.
Østfold har vært et foregangsfylke med sine 100 biogassbusser i Fredrikstad og Sarpsborg, og Oslo kommune har åpnet sitt produksjonsanlegg på Nes, sier Sundtoft.

Klima- og miljødepartementet vil vurdere ulike kostnadseffektive virkemidler for å fremme utsortering av våtorganisk avfall fra husholdninger og næringslivet.
Stricter requirements will be considered for the environmental and eco-efficient storage and spreading of manure in connection with the revision of the Fertilizer Regulations.
Det vil vurderes strengere krav til miljø- og klimaeffektiv lagring og spredning av husdyrgjødsel i forbindelse med revisjonen av gjødselvareforskriften.
The Ministries of Transport and Communications, Climate and Environment and Industry and Fisheries are conducting further work on the proposal for requirements for low and zero emission vehicles in public procurement.
Samferdselsdepartementet, Klima- og miljødepartementet og Nærings- og fiskeridepartementet arbeider videre med forslaget om krav til lav- og nullutslippskjøretøy i offentlige anskaffelser.
A road usage tax on fuel will be considered as part of the overall review of motor vehicle taxes.
Veibruksavgift på drivstoff vil bli vurdert som en del av den helhetlige gjennomgangen av bilavgiftene.
The Ministry of Climate and Environment will establish a national contact forum for biogas interests, led by the Environment Agency.
Klima- og miljødepartementet nedsetter et nasjonalt kontaktforum for biogassinteresser ledet av Miljødirektoratet.
