Biogas is connected to the IoT (Internet of things) to offer new revenue models for Swedish farmers!

 

Nowadays, converting a car to be able to fuel it with biogas can be easily done and costs about 1,000 euro –an investment that can be recuperated relatively quickly, as the cost of biogas is about 20% cheaper than petrol. This can be up to 50% cheaper for the end-users who buy biogas directly from the farmer. In order to be used as vehicle fuel, biogas must be upgraded into biomethane, and is often referenced as compressed biogas or CBG. The conclusion is that it became important to offer cost-effective biogas upgrading modules that are available to all, even small farms. Farmers who invest in their own biogas plant, and upgrade their biogas to biomethane, could make huge profits if they could be reachable for their end-users. Even if they will not sell the biomethane, they will be able to run all their private means of transport, such as tractors, cars, or busses with biogas, which saves a lot of money for the individual farm. NeoZeo, in cooperation with Ayond’s IoT department are developing the app for biogas/biomethane producing farmers, which will show to anyone who wants to refuel their car with biogas the directions to the nearest biomethane selling farm, as well as offer a safe and easy payment system for a seamless car-fueling experience. NeoZeo’s biogas upgrading module together with its newly developed app will contribute to the Swedish government's ambitious efforts to achieve fossil-free transport by 2030!

NeoZeo has received VC investment from Imprimatur Capital Technology Venture Fund.

 

Riga, 7th of January, 2014. NeoZeo has received investment of €600,000 from Imprimatur Capital Technology Venture Fund in Latvia. NeoZeo develops small-scale raw biogas upgrading systems for farms and municipalities to convert raw biogas to pure biomethane for direct use as a vehicle fuel.

Renewable energy is becoming one of the fastest growing energy sources. The global raw biogas upgrading market is expected to reach $340 million by 2016 and with a compounded annual growth rate of 22%. However a major technical challenge for raw biogas upgrading is how to cost-efficiently utilize unexploited agricultural waste at the small and medium scale and turn it into pure biomethane.

NeoZeo, a spin-out from Stockholm University, has found a novel solution for solving that problem. The company has developed and patented a unique zeolite structured porous material and process for the effective separation of carbon dioxide and methane. The key commercial application is the small and medium scale upgrading or purification of raw biogas into cost-efficient green gas fuel for cars and buses. The new capital investment will finance the design, development and marketing of a commercial-scale biogas upgrading unit and enable initial sales in key target markets during 2014 and 2015.

Petr Vasiliev, Co-founder & CEO of NeoZeo stated that “The investment and Imprimatur Capital Fund Management team are essential to achieve NeoZeo’s targets to make the big step from prototype to commercial-scale to reach the biogas upgrading market and take a technological lead with our small-scale raw biogas upgrading solution for farms.”

Toby Moore, Managing Partner of Imprimatur Capital Fund Management in Latvia stated, “We have been impressed by the high technical competence of the NeoZeo team, the positive support of Stockholm University Innovation in the commercialisation of the technology and the strongly growing market in which NeoZeo operates and aims to become a leading player worldwide.”
