Holmön

Holmön has an electrical power supply by cables from the mainland. Holmön has no fuel supply station on the island. It is up to the inhabitants to transport fuel from the mainland, either with ferry or by boat. We aim to establish a fuel supply station on the island that can serve both land vehicles and boats.

We have a simple compost facility, that might be able to convert and collect compost gas, which in turn can be used to run a generator to produce electricity as a complement to the cable. 

While solar panels are of interest, wind power is currently not considered. 

As part of the 30 for 2030 call the following activities are planned: 

The Ferries decarbonisation activity includes a technical feasibility study of electric ferries or other sustainable solutions, as well as a study on the connection to the grid and the alternative fuels supply chain. Additionally, there is a financial feasibility study of the identified solutions for ferries decarbonisation. The CETA activity covers the baseline, vision pillars, and stakeholders, and includes exploring storage, transport, and conversion of vehicles. The RES production activity involves a resource assessment, possibly already included in the CETA and very likely focused on biomass, along with a pre-feasibility study. Lastly, the ownership and business models of RES activity involves a study on ownership and business models of identified viable RES solutions.

Please note the island of Holmön has applied jointly for the 30 for 2030 call with Hven | Clean energy for EU islands (europa.eu), Vinön | Clean energy for EU islands (europa.eu) and Visingsö | Clean energy for EU islands (europa.eu).
