Uniper and Q1 Energie team up on bio-LNG
In Germany, Uniper and Q1 Energie AG concluded an agreement regarding the supply of bio-LNG. The renewable fuel is made available for road transport in several German states via the Q1 bio-LNG-net. This cooperation marks the first business relationship between the two companies and emphasizes the common goal of continuing to advance low-emission fuel solutions for heavy transport.
The sustainably produced biomethane is liquefied at the Gate terminal in Rotterdam using the existing LNG infrastructure and stored temporarily as bio-LNG. It is transported in ISO tank containers from Rotterdam to a central storage point in Germany, where Q1 takes charge of distributing it to filling stations according to need. As the owner, importer, and distributor of the bio-LNG, Uniper is responsible for the entire supply chain from transporting biomethane to liquefying it and on to importing the gas into Germany, and as such it is entitled to claim the resulting GHG quotas.
