The 115-kilometer-long gas pipeline from Everdrup to Nakskov was established with the expectation that up to 20 companies would connect. So far, only Nordic Sugar has connected, while other companies have withdrawn due to rising costs. According to FemernBusiness, the connection price for the companies was four to five times higher than the original agreements.
- We would very much like to have access to greener energy, but we were offered a completely different price when we first started talking about it. So it became too expensive and could not pay off for us in the long run, says CEO of Metalcolour Jakob Søndergaard Nielsen, who is CEO of Metalcolour.
Despite the challenges, there are still plans to connect two biogas plants. First, it concerns Bigadan's plant in Nysted, and then Nature Energy's upcoming plant at Abed, which is expected to be connected before 2026. The costs of the gas pipeline are primarily financed through tariffs, which means that private gas customers and companies are left with the majority of the bill.
