In April 2008, Flygbussarna Airport Coaches began operating five coaches that run on Swedish-grown organic rapeseed (canola) oil. During a 16-month trial period, local bus company Upplands Lokaltrafik’s route number 803 will operate on locally produced rapeseed fuel.
Stockholm Transport (SL) route 583 is also currently operating 60 per cent on ethanol; in March, SL plans to start operating the route on 100 per cent ethanol.
