4 1 st National Workshop in Denmark The 1 st BiogasHeat national workshop in Denmark was organised as a joint event together with the Danish Innovation Network Innovationsnetværk VE-net, Innovation Network for Biomass INBIOM, Transportens Innovationsnetværk and IEE supported project Biomaster. DTI decided to join efforts with these partners/projects because it would be difficult to attract participants to separate BiogasHeat event since almost all biogas plants in Denmark are already using heat and interest in Denmark regarding optimization of use of heat from biogas plants is very limited. Instead, there is in Denmark considerable interest in upgrading of biogas, and therefore it was expected that more participants could be drawn to a combined meeting with a common introductory session and then two parallel sessions for the two projects. The meeting took place at Agro Food Park, Aarhus, Denmark on September 12 th, Agenda Agenda of the event is given below: Time Topic Presenter 10:00-10:10 Welcome and opening of the workshop Magrethe Høstgaard, INBIOM 10:10-10:30 Introduction to the BIOMASTER project and aims of the Stefano Proietti, ISIS workshop 10:30-11:00 Overview of the biogas and biomethane situation in Mårten Ahlm, SEA-SE Sweden 11:00-11:30 Biogas production in Denmark present and future Bruno Sander Nielsen, Danish Biogas Association 11:30-12:00 Biogas upgrading technologies Torben Kvist, Danish Gas Technology center 12:00-13:00 Lunch break Parallel session 1: Biomaster 13:00-13:30 3 innovative methanation technologies Anders Peter Adamsen, University of Aarhus 13:30-14:00 Realistic business model for upgrading in Denmark Carsten Rudmose, HMN Natural Gas Distributor 14:00-14:30 Gas/biogas for transport the Danish conditions Lars Overgaard, The Danish Transoir Innovation Network 14:30-15:00 Experiences of biomethane use in different types of Mårten Ahlm, SEA-SE vehicles 15:00-15:30 Decisional processes and business models Stefano Proietti, ISIS 15:30-16:00 Questions & Answers and closing remarks Knud Tybirk, Agro Business Park (moderator) Parallel session 2: BiogasHeat 13:00-14:00 BiogasHeat project presentation. Work and results Jørgen Hinge, DTI achieved so far 14:00-16:00 How to improve the utilization of heat from biogas plants? Discussion and work in groups Jørgen Hinge, DTI (moderator) Most of the participants, who eventually signed up for the workshop, were interested in parallel session 1. Therefore it has been decided to make the parallel session 2 shorter so the participants of the BiogasHeat session could join session 1 for the rest of the day. October, DTI

5 Participants All together 22 people participated on the joint workshop. Participants included representatives from university, municipalities, associations and networks, as well commercial organisations and companies. Figure 1: Workshop participants Conclusion In Denmark it is difficult to gather sufficient interest on the biogas heat use issues. An effort has indeed been made to organize fruitful discussion on the heat use issues, but at the moment Denmark is going more into the biomethane direction. The resources spent has been manpower by DTI, but considering the low interest and insufficient outcomes, the hours spent for the preparation of the workshop has not been charged on the project. Instead it is recommended, that DTI resources should be allocated for oral or other contributions to BiogasHeat workshops in other partner countries, where Danish experience in optimization of the use of heat from biogas plants could indeed be valuable.

6 Opsummering (summary of the workshop in Danish) Arrangementet blev afholdt i samarbejde med Innovations-netværkene VE-net, INBIOM og Transportens Innovationsnetværk samt projektet Biomaster. Det er i diverse BiogasHeat rapporteringer beskrevet, hvordan interessen for optimering af varmeudnyttelse fra biogasanlæg i Danmark er meget begrænset. Det var derfor tanken, at man kunne tiltrække flere deltagere til et kombineret arrangement frem for en særskilt BiogasHeat work-shop. Der er i Danmark stor interesse for opgradering af biogas til naturgaskvalitet, og der planlagdes derfor et kombineret arrangement med projektet Biomaster, med en fælles session og to parallelle sessioner. Der indkom 22 tilmeldinger til arrangementet. Imidlertid var der blandt de tilmeldte meget begrænset interesse for at deltage i BiogasHeat-delen af den parallelle session. Men næsten alle deltagere tilmeldte sig Biomaster sporet af den parallelle session. Derfor besluttedes det, efter en kort diskussion blandt de få deltagere i BiogasHeat sporet, at disse gik sammen med Biomaster sporet for resten af dagen. Vi må konkludere, at det indtil nu ikke har været muligt indtil nu at samle tilstrækkelig interesse for en udbytterig workshop om BiogasHeat området i Danmark. Der er gjort en betydelig indsats, men hidtil uden resultat. DTI har brugt ressourcer på arrangementet, men i betragtning af det manglende resultat, er timerne ikke konteret på projektet. I stedet anbefales det, at der afsættes DTI ressourcer til mundtlige eller andre bidrag til BiogasHeat workshops i andre partnerlande, hvor danske erfaringer med optimering af brugen af varme fra biogasanlæg kunne være værdifulde.
