The Nordic service provider Freja has been using biogas to power its trucks in Finland since the beginning of December 2018.

 

In collaboration with Gasum, the forwarder started semi-trailer transport with an Iveco Stralis NP tractor unit. The collaboration is related to a study carried out under the Civitas Eccentric project co-funded by the EU. The study produces research data on the use of gas in heavy-duty transport.

 

The Civitas Eccentric project aims at developing a sustainable mobility system by testing biogas vehicles and the increased use of biogas in logistics. Freja’s traffic director, Sampo Koulu, observed: “We want to develop efficient transport solutions with a minimal environmental burden.” (ben)
