The Mayor of Olavarría Ezequiel Galli visited the YPF San Jacinto service station, where the construction of the first public service station that will allow fast refueling of CNG to trucks in Argentina is underway. The work will result in significant benefits not only for carriers, but will also speed up the refueling time for private vehicles.
Gasum has begun work on building a new biomethane station in the municipality of Keminmaa in northern Finland. Construction work will take around six months and the goal is to open the service station to the public by the end of this year. It will provide both bio-LNG and bio-CNG, thereby serving heavy-duty transport and passenger car drivers.
The presentation takes place within the framework of the adaptation that is being carried out at the YPF service station in Justiniano Posse, which includes the addition of exclusive islands for the high-flow supply of CNG for heavy trucks. This work marks a national milestone, since it is one of the first stations in the country to be reformed to offer this service
SIAD Macchine Impianti (SIAD MI) was selected to build a small scale LNG (SSLNG) plant for the production of biomethane near Röthenbach an der Pegnitz, in the Bavarian region of Germany. The client is bioplus LNG, a German company founded by VGT. The new plant, expected to be commissioned in October 2024, will produce 140 tons of bio-LNG per day.
Rå Biopark, the largest environment project in Northern Norway, and Barents NaturGass have signed a Letter Of Intent for the sale and distribution of biogas. The agreement has a duration of 10 years with options for renewal. Through closed systems Rå Biopark will produce bio-LNG equal to more than 5 million liters of diesel per annum.
As the exclusive biomethane fueling supplier for Werner during trials to validate commercial production of the engine, Trillium will fuel Werner’s Peterbilt Model 579 field trial truck powered by the Cummins X15N natural gas engine with biomethane from its Omaha, Nebraska and Rockford, Illinois CNG stations.
Europe reached a total of 1,322 biomethane-producing facilities by April 2023. These 299 new plants represent nearly 30% more than the ones reported in the previous edition of this map in 2021. Compared to the previous editions of the map, the number of plants in Europe has steeply increased: 483 plants in the 2018 edition, 729 in 2020 and 1,023 in 2021.
Rolande has opened a new bio-LNG filling station at the Poort van Midden Gelderland business park, a strategic location situated on the A50 near Heteren, Arnhem and Wageningen. The construction of the new facility, which features two LNG pumps, is part of the BioLNG4EU project, subsidized by the European Union from the CEF program.
Gas Networks Ireland and Circle K have taken another step forward in reducing emissions from Ireland’s heavy transport industry, one of the most difficult industries to decarbonize. The companies are offering biomethane at Circle K’s forecourts in Ballysimon Road, Limerick; Cashel, Clonshaugh and Dublin Port.
The industrial biomethane production plant in La Galera (Tarragona) has successfully completed the first tests to inject this renewable gas into the gas grid. This facility, led by Enagás together with Infraestructura Biometagás and Biometagás, is the first private connection to the gas transmission network in Spain.
