    BYGG OG INFRASTRUKTUR TIL BIOGASS ANLEGG PÅ VOSS
    description:
    BIR AS skal etablere nytt biogassanlegg på Bjørkemoen i Voss. Denne totalentreprisen omfatter Bygg og infrastruktur til et biogass anlegg. Prosessdelen av anlegget er tildelt til Biovoima Oy etter konkurranse gjennomført etter regelverket for FOA. Totalentreprenør for bygg og infrastruktur vil få et koordineringsansvar for totalentreprise inngått med Biovoima Oy. Nærmere beskrivelse om dette finnes i Del 2 – Kontraktsgrunnlaget med tilhørende vedlegg. Biogassanlegget er planlagt å bli et sentralt element i en framtidig biopark på denne lokasjonen. Bioparken skal tilrettelegge for ulike behandlingsløsninger for bioavfall og oppsirkulere avfall der mulig. Biogassanlegget er første del i bioparken på Bjørkemoen. Det kan oppstå en situasjon hvor det blir parallell utbygning på tomten av andre entreprenører. Prosjektet har en estimert ramme på ca. 100 MNOK. Dette er kun et estimat og er ikke forpliktende for Oppdragsgiver.

How an AI agent should use this page

Ground rule: Navigate with HTML GET links to keep explanations and relationships. Use the page's JSON alternative only when concrete values must be extracted, compared or computed.

How to use the search_doffin lookup

  1. Replace the placeholders in the HTML GET template; remove optional parameters you do not need.
  2. Check types, units, limits and ID formats in the parameter table.
  3. Follow linked results to canonical pages before combining sources.

Misreading to avoid: An empty list means "no results for this lookup". An error message or unavailable source does not mean the data does not exist.

Source-specific next step

Go to the source page for other operations. Use the JSON template only after the HTML result shows that the parameters and source are correct.
