Värtan Gas owns and operates the regulated gas grid in Stockholm. The investment reduces greenhouse gas emissions by displacing natural gas from the gas grid, as most of the gas used is biogas sourced from the city’s wastewater facilities.
The current composition of the gas supplied through the network includes c.70% biogas.
The gas network has a total grid length of c.540km, supported by a 200-tonne storage terminal at Högdalen with 100MW of regasification capacity, along with another 40-tonne reserve storage facility in Frihamnen. The grid is an essential component of an integrated system, aligned with national and regional strategies to attain carbon neutrality by 2040.
The project offers the opportunity for SEEIT to make an investment in an important infrastructure asset that helps with greenhouse gas emission reductions, with the opportunity to make it greener.
