Scotland: CNG Fuels to launch first biomethane station

Eurocentral location is the first of 14 stations that CNG Fuels is due to built over the next two years across the UK with £80 million in funding, by PetroPlaza

CNG Fuels, a UK supplier of bio-CNG, has started building Scotland’s first public access renewable biomethane HGV refuelling station, the company announced. The new station, at the Eurocentral industrial estate near Glasgow, is due to open in November and will refuel up to 450 lorries a day.

Eurocentral is the first of 14 further stations that CNG Fuels is due to built over the next two years across the United Kingdom with £80 million of funding from a new partnership with Foresight Group, including two more in Scotland near Larkhall and Livingston.

Most of England and Wales is already within a 300-mile round trip of a biomethane refuelling station and the new facility will put Inverness and Aberdeen within this range.

CNG Fuels was established in 2014, and is today the UK market leader for the supply of Bio-CNG (renewable and sustainable biomethane fuel) for commercial vehicles. It currently operates six refuelling stations in England and is building out a strategic network on major routes.
