World’s largest biomethane refuelling station?

CNG Fuels is to open what it says will be the world’s largest public access biomethane refuelling station for HGVs by the end of the year near Bristol. Construction has begun on the Avonmouth station, near the M4/M5 junction.

The station will be able to refuel 80 HGVs an hour from 14 high speed dispensers and joins six existing refuelling stations already operational across the UK, enabling fleet operators to operate from Inverness all the way down to Cornwall.

100% of the fuel supplied by CNG Fuels is renewable and sustainable biomethane, approved under the Department for Transport’s Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation (RTFO) scheme, says CNG. The gas is currently sourced from waste feedstocks, such as food waste.
