![Since May 2011, Linde has been supplying the entire Baltic Sea region with liquefied natural gas from its Nynäshamn terminal in southern Sweden. The gas is liquefied at Linde’s Stavanger LNG facility and shipped to the terminal in stor-age tanks. Here it is stored for onward transport in a tank capa-ble of holding up to 20,000 cubic metres of LNG – in other words, around twelve million cubic metres of gas.](/en/images/20130715_58988_289x160_7693_tcm581-97566.jpg)

Global demand for energy continues to spiral, fuelled by growth in the world’s population and economic expansion. Today, most of our energy needs are met through fossil fuels. However, these reserves are limited in supply and are contributing to the effects of global warming.
LNG is set to become one of the most important primary energy sources for the 21st century. Compared with other fossil fuels, gas is relatively clean with regards to air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions and has larger proven reserves.
Industries that replace fuel and convert from oil to liquefied natural gas, not only make a significant contribution to the environment, but also a financial savings over time. 20-30% reduction in carbon emissions, while allowing you to save an average of 5% on energy costs through energy efficiency and reduced maintenance.
If your business uses propane (LPG), a conversion to LNG involves a positive environmental effect by 15% in carbon dioxide reduction.
Whether the need is the supply of LNG, or establishment of infrastructure at your premises, AGA can assist with support and expertise throughout. Many years of gas experience and knowledge of cryogenic environmentally friendly fuel, enabling us to provide turnkey systems that contribute to a faster conversion.
