If you move goods across long distances, energy choices matter. Not in theory, but on the road – where routes, timing and reliability decide what actually works.

Across the Nordic region, St1 is building infrastructure with exactly that in mind. Step by step, station by station, the focus is on making low-emission options available where heavy transport actually travels.

A practical energy hub in the heart of Norway

At St1’s station in Koppang, two new low-emission solutions for heavy transport are now available side by side: liquefied biogas and high-power charging for electric trucks.

For professional drivers travelling through the Østerdalen valley, this means more flexibility along National Highway 3, one of Norway’s most important freight corridors connecting southern and central parts of the country. Instead of choosing routes based on fuel availability, drivers can now choose the solution that fits their operation.

The liquefied biogas facility opened in early January and was developed in collaboration with St1 Biokraft. Located next to the existing St1 marketplace, it is part of a broader effort to expand Norway’s infrastructure for liquefied biogas.

In mid-January, high-power charging for electric trucks was added at the same site. Designed specifically for heavy vehicles, the charging solution enables faster charging, shorter stops and more predictable logistics planning, while fitting within regulated driving and rest periods.

Extending the same thinking into Finland

The work doesn’t stop at national borders.

In Finland, St1 has recently opened two new liquefied biogas refuelling stations for heavy-duty transport, located in Iisalmi and Liminka.

Both locations are closely tied to real transport flows. Iisalmi supports logistics in eastern Finland, serving both north–south traffic and regional distribution. Liminka, in the Tupos area, sits along Highway 4, a key route for freight traffic serving northern Finland and the Oulu economic region.

The idea is simple: when stations are placed where transport already moves, switching to biogas becomes easier to plan – and easier to trust.

Building continuity, not one-off solutions

What connects Koppang, Iisalmi and Liminka is not just technology, but continuity.

Together with its joint venture St1 Biokraft, St1 is developing a cross-border network for liquefied biogas that supports long-distance and heavy transport across the Nordics. St1’s Nordic LBG network now includes 13 stations, with an ambition to reach 50 by the end of 2028. Seven of the current stations are locaded in Finland, four in Sweden and two in Norway.

In parallel, St1 Biokraft operates more than 50 compressed biogas stations in Sweden.

At the same time, St1 continues to invest in renewable HVO diesel and high-power charging infrastructure for electric vehicles. Different routes and operations require different solutions, and the transition will not follow a single path.

By focusing on practical locations, predictable access and multiple low-emission options, St1 aims to support transport operators as the industry evolves – not by telling them what to choose, but by making real choices possible on the road.
