The facility, which will convert organic waste into biogas, will be located at Bjørkemoen in Voss. It comprises several buildings, technical infrastructure, and external tanks to accommodate the process plant, which will be delivered as a separate contract.

- We are very satisfied at being chosen as the contractor for this forward-looking project by BIR. The project adheres to various environmental requirements, including BREEAM certification, a fossil-free construction site, and specific material usage criteria. These challenges will contribute to the development of our organization, says Gard Kvalheim, CEO of LAB Entreprenør.

Construction work is scheduled to commence in early June 2024, with completion expected by December 2025.

The final contract is subject to approval by the BIR board.
