April 6, 2026. Gasum’s liquefied biogas (LBG) filling station in Joensuu has opened. The station has already been providing compressed biogas for lighter vehicles, and with the expansion, the station now also serves heavy traffic.
It is Finland’s easternmost liquefied biogas filling station and it will significantly improve the availability of LBG in Eastern Finland. With the opening of the Joensuu station, Gasum will now have a total of 23 stations in the LBG refueling network for heavy-duty vehicles in Finland.
“Over the past ten years, Gasum’s goal has been to build a comprehensive and efficient filling station network that supports the transition to a low-emission fuel alternative throughout the Finnish main road artery network. With the new station, more and more transport companies will have the opportunity to make the responsible choice of using biogas in logistics,” says Juho Kurra, Head of Business, Traffic Finland, Gasum.
The opening of the liquefied gas station will also increase the operational reliability of the distribution of compressed gas, as the liquefied gas can be vaporized for distribution at the compressed gas station, if necessary. An additional refueling point for buses that will be opened in connection with the station expansion will also bring additional relief.
