LocaGas – Low Calorific Gas for Green Power Production is an Interreg South Baltic project.
Three different technologies for utilisation of landfill gas with low methane content for power production will be investigated in lab and pilot scale.
The three year project is coordinated by Gdansk University of Technology with support from BEIC.
BEIC is responsible for the dissemination and communication activities.
Carbon Neutral LNG is a 3-year Horizon Europe project coordinated by Friedrich-Alexander-Universität in Erlangen-Nuremberg.
The project revolves around electricity assisted biomass gasification, catalytic and biological methanation, and liquefaction.
BEIC is involved in the Dissemination, Exploitation and Communication activities.
D-Twin Baltic is a seed funding project co-financed by the Swedish Institute. Project partners are NSR AB, Lithuanian Energy Institute and the Gas Institute of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. The project is coordinated by BEIC.
The project started on the 1st of October 2022 and finshes on the 31st March 2024.
On the 28th of June, the BEIC Annual General Meeting (AGM) was held.
All five member organisations were represented.
Prof. Frank Scholwin was re-elected as the chairmain of the board.
Dr. Andrius Tamosiunas was re-elected as the vice chairman of the board.
Dr. Jörgen Held was re-elected as a board member. In his capacity as executive managing director, Jörgen Held acts as the secretary and treasurer of the Baltic Energy Innovation Centre.
The economy is in good balance and BEIC made a small profit of 63 683 SEK (approx. 6,100 EUR) in 2021, which will be carried forward, together with the profit from previous years, in a new account.
In relation to the AGM, the Gender Equality Plan and the Environmental Policy and Action Plan were revised.
BEIC is very active and participates as coordinator or project partner in applications for R&DD projects related to renewable methane. Having members from DE, DK, LT, PL and SE makes BEIC the perfect partner for INTERREG project within the Baltic Sea Region.
BEIC has been granted funding from the Regional Council of Skåne to coordinate a pre-study on green electricity from landfill gas with low methane content.
Project partners are Swedish Waste Management Association, NSR AB and Deponigas ApS.

A brief explanation of one aspect of the COASTAL Biogas project – Biogas from cast seaweed and algae. Excess seaweed and algae are a problem for the Baltic Sea. One solution is to collect it and use it for renewable energy. At the same time eutrophication is mitigated since nutrients are physically removed from the sea/beach.

Jörgen Held, BEIC and Jens Bo Holm-Nielsen, Aalborg University were appointed to the assessment committee in relation to the PhD defense by Cristina Landt at Roskilde University.
The thesis, “Forretningsmodeller for biogas – I et cirkulært økonomisk perspektiv”, deals with the development of the Danish biogas sector and five biogas facilities using manure as co-substrate are analysed in detail in terms of ownership, business model, input and output streams, process parameters and economy.
Jörgen Held was invited to present the COASTAL Biogas project at the GREATER Bio digital seminar on the 17th of September in Malmö. Sonia Denkiewicz, Skåne Energy Agency opened the seminar, Jens Almqvist, KRINOVA presented the CONTRA project and Tyge Kjaer, Roskilde University presented the Solröd Biogas plant.
