Tallinn’s Activities: Promotion of usage of gaseous fuels in heavy machinery

International Seminar Eco-driving: Gaseous Fuels:

• Biogas: Uppsala case from research to business

• Researches, business plans and profitability calculations for switching to gaseous fuels

• Baltic Biogas Bus project: partial switch of public transport (busses) on biogas fuel in Tartu city

• Obstacle in coordination processes of biogas fuel production and usage – experience of project ADORE It

• MAN – environmental aspects and practical experience of using gaseous fuels in vehicles

• Ragn-Sells – practical experience of using gaseous fuels in heavy machines

• Practical experience of using gaseous fuels in taxi

• Technical realization of switching vehicles to gaseous fuels

Activities: Promotion of usage of gaseous fuels in heavy machinery

Activities: public procurement

Company that wins:

• will have to prepare an analyze of fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, produced by the work of companies that provide road-cleaning, waste management, building, logistic etc services in Tallinn City

• will have to prepare recommendations and different scenarios on how to solve this problem (heavy machinery extra including eco-driving)

Activities: other activities

• Working on the development of region version of the Climate Agreement

• Translating and utilizing research findings from Uppsala on Eco-driving

• Exchange of experience between 3 regions: Uppsala, Niepolomice and Tallinn, in the field of Energy Efficiency
