SEAT offered test drive with NGVs. After signing a
strategic agreement in 2013, the automobile
manufacturer and Gas Natural Fenosa held a joint
action to provide the inhabitants of the Spanish
autonomous community with the possibility of test
driving CNG-powered cars. In total, six SEAT dealers
set up special areas to trial them, on October 7-9.
During these days, customers, driving schools and
companies based in Álava, Vizcaya and Guipúzcoa had
the chance to test compressed natural gas powered
versions of SEAT cars. Both models León TGI y Mii
Ecofuel are now available in the Spanish market and
backed by their international success in countries like
Italy and Germany in the use of this cheaper and
cleaner fuel.
Belgium
Scania joins Belgian manufacturer to launch new
natural gas city bus. In cooperation with Van Hool,
Scania is offering a new bus model for city or BRT
routes that can operate on either biomethane or CNG
and features a unique combination of capacity and low
environmental impact. As well as being energy
efficient, the Scania Van Hool Exqui.City bus also offers
a light and spacious interior with an eye-catching
articulated body that is reminiscent of a tram, thus
combining the best of both worlds: the image and
efficiency of a tram with the flexibility and cost levels of
a bus system.
“We have joined forces with the renowned Belgian bus
builder Van Hool to produce one of the most
spectacular and low impact vehicles ever seen in the
public transport market. The design has been well
received in large cities Europe-wide, forming part of
BRT systems or smaller scale bus systems and
boosting the image of public transport,” said Camilla
Lood, Product Manager of Sustainable Solutions at
Scania.
Portugal
Dourogás opened to the public its second natural gas
filling station. The company inaugurated the CNG and
LNG fueling site, whose investment amounted to € 1.5
million, in Carregado district. The Minister of
Environment Jorge Moreira da Silva attended the
event and said the government is working to eliminate
barriers to the use of natural gas fuel as a way in
order to decrease dependence on oil.
The first natural gas public station of Dourogás was
opened last year in Mirandela, although the company
has two additional fueling sites under evaluation: one
for Porto Public Transport Corporation (STCP) and the
other one for Carris mass transit in Lisbon.

European and Asian ports address plans for LNG bunkering
Earlier this year, the Port of Dunkirk (France) issued a Call for Expressions of Interest (CEI) for the setup of a
marine bunkering and on-land supply chain of small-scale LNG. Now, the Dunkerque LNG – Air Liquide – Exmar
consortium has organized and presented the project. For the on-land supply, Dunkerque LNG and Air Liquide will
be responsible for the preliminary studies, the engineering and the investments. Gaz-Opale, a subsidiary of
Dunkerque LNG operating the LNG terminal, will operate the on-land installation.
Regarding marine bunkering, Dunkerque LNG will be in charge of the initial studies, the engineering and the
investments for the installations to transfer LNG from the terminal network connection as far as the loading arm.
Exmar, for its part, will handle the preliminary studies, the engineering and the building of a bunkering ship with a
capacity to be defined according to LNG requirements as identified during the initialization phase. Its operation will
be assigned to Exmar Shipmanagement (a subsidiary of Exmar).
During the first phase the loading arms and the main wharf of the LNG terminal, currently under construction, will
be adapted to rapidly allow LNG supply to ships with capacities of up to 2,000 m3. In a second phase the
consortium plans to build a marine station specifically dedicated to bunkering, which could accommodate ships
with capacities of between 2,000 and 20,000 m3, operated by Gaz-Opale. During a later phase they also plan to
build a bunkering barge which could supply vessels on the inland waterway networks.
Moreover, Ulsan Metropolitan City (Korea) is looking to develop an LNG bunkering facility at the Port of Ulsan and
will undergo a preliminary feasibility study next year to assess this initiative. It will spur the study as it is expected
that the number of LNG-powered vessels will increase as well as demand for LNG bunkering based on stabilization
of LNG prices, which is attributable to International Maritime Organization's (IMO's) reinforcement of regulation on
marine and port sector.
The Ulsan city also indicated that vessels, which arrive at and depart from Ulsan port, will be replaced with LNGpowered ones. So, it is also reportedly imperative to establish a fuel supply facility and select its location. The city
also plans to sign a memorandum of understanding with Korea Gas Corporation and LNG bunkering consultative
group within this year, and then commence the preliminary study.

Belgium: Fluxys opens LNG station to fuel Mattheeuws Transport’s fleet
The new facility, located on the premises of Mattheeuws Transport in Veurne, is supplied by a tanker truck from
Zeebrugge’s LNG terminal and will service the haulage company’s 26 LNG-powered trucks. “We have developed a
unique partnership with Fluxys, Eni, Volvo Trucks and Romac Fuels to promote LNG as a valid alternative to biopetroleum. I’m convinced that LNG is the future,” said Eric Mattheeuws, CEO of Mattheeuws Transport.
For Fluxys the project is a pilot both in terms of engineering, technology, permitting and working out the economics
of an LNG station. The experience gained during construction and the feedback from Eric Mattheeuws as operator
of the filling station is to yield recommendations and best practices to be used when building more stations. “By
joining forces with this transporter we have lowered the threshold for other freight companies to make the switch
to LNG,” commented Walter Peeraer, CEO of Fluxys.
As the initiative by Mattheeuws Transport and Fluxys not only includes the construction of an LNG filling station but
also aims at producing a business case for the industry as well as lessons to be learnt for public authorities, it will
most likely receive co-financing by the European Commission. The project was selected for EU funding by an
independent group of experts under the priority 'Measures to promote innovation and new technologies for
transport infrastructure' of the TEN-T Annual Call 2013.
“The EC supports LNG as an alternative fuel for trucks. The new LNG station will most likely be co-financed for
50% of the costs. We are particularly pleased with this initiative, which forms part of a broader project and will
provide interesting lessons both for policy makers and the industry alike,” added Stefano Campagnolo, Project
Manager Transport at the Innovation and Networks Executive Agency (INEA) of the European Commission.
Germany: European Union supports innovative LNG-fueled hopper barge
The EU's TEN-T Program will co-finance with over €1.5 million the construction of
the first in Europe hopper barge powered by LNG, a fuel that could help reduce air
pollution caused by barge transport services. Hopper barges carrying sand dredged
from ports are most often using conventional, more polluting fuel than accepted by
the European regulation for future shipping services (2050 onwards). The hopper
barge will be anchored in the ports of Bremerhaven and Bremen in Germany.
The pilot project features the technical design of the new barge, granting
permissions to operate in the inland waterways of the port areas, as well as actual
construction and testing of the barge under real life conditions. It also includes
recommendations and best practice for a larger roll-out of this vessel type.
The action is expected to have a multiplier effect due to the high demand for
dredging in the sandy North Sea and inland ports. Using LNG-powered vessels
would contribute to reducing the transport industry’s impact on the environment.
Furthermore, the project's findings and solutions could be replicated on all types of inland navigation vessels.
The project, scheduled to be completed by December 2015, was selected for EU funding with the assistance of external experts
under the TEN-T Annual Call 2013, priority 'Decarbonisation (oil substitution or environmental cost reduction)'. Its implementation
will be monitored by INEA, the European Commission's Innovation and Networks Executive Agency.

Wärtsilä will equip LNG icebreakers serving project in Northern Russia
The Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering (DSME) yard in South Korea has ordered a total of 54
Wärtsilä dual fuel engines to power 172,600 cbm icebreaking LNG carriers being built for use in arctic
conditions to serve the Yamal LNG project in Northern Russia. For each carrier Wärtsilä will supply 12-cylinder
and 9-cylinder Wärtsilä 50DF engines. The total power output from the engines is 64,350 kW per vessel.
“The fitting of Wärtsilä 50DF engines onboard the first LNG carriers in 2006 set a trend in the industry and since
that introduction, 65% of all new LNG carriers have been fitted with Wärtsilä dual-fuel engines. The strong success
of this particular engine over the alternatives is based on its propulsion efficiency and the clear environmental
advantages that operating on gas allows,” said Lars Anderson, Vice President, Wärtsilä Ship Power.
The Wärtsilä machinery is capable of operating on LNG, HFO, or low-viscosity MDO but LNG will be the main
type of fuel to be used. When operating in arctic waters the engines will be operating in ambient temperatures
of as much as minus 50 degrees Celsius on LNG carriers breaking through ice more than two meters thick, in
operating modes that allow dramatic variations in engine load within a limited period of time.
The Arc 7 design ships will be owned by one joint venture between Teekay LNG Partners of Canada and China
LNG Shipping (CLNG), and another joint venture between China Shipping LNG Investment Co. Ltd. (CSLNG) and
Japan based Mitsui O.S.K. The order for engines was placed with Wärtsilä’s Korean joint venture company,
Wärtsilä Hyundai Engine Co., (WHEC) in October.
GNF and Baleària innovate Spanish maritime sector with LNG adoption
Gas Natural Fenosa general manager of Retail Energy Business,
Daniel López Jordà, and Baleària president, Adolfo Utor, signed an
agreement to jointly promote the development and installation of a
natural gas engine and a liquefied natural gas tank in the Abel
Matutes ferry, which daily operates the Barcelona-Palma route.
With this initiative, the first of its kind in Spain, both companies
can significantly reduce emissions in the Metropolitan Area of
Barcelona and the port zone of Palma de Mallorca.
It is expected that the works on the installation of the natural gas
engine and an auxiliary 30 m3 (range for a week) tank in ferry
Abel Matutes’ deck 8 will start in early 2015. The project also
includes setting up a gas treatment plant in the same upper deck.
The new engine will be fully integrated into the ship's power plant
and will have no visual impact. The beginning of the testing and commissioning phases is expected to take place
by the end of next year.
The ferry, which is 190 meters in length, has a passenger capacity of 900 people and 2,235 linear meters.

Spain: GNF plans to build 17 LNG stations for HDVs in two phases
Gas Natural Fenosa announced that the project
includes the construction of eight new natural gas
fueling sites to be located on country’s main
transport routes and to be set in approximately
two years. For this first stage, the investment
involved will be close to €7 million.
The new filling stations will join the seven facilities
that the company is already operating in those
routes and the other two that are currently under
construction. As a result, a refueling network ready
to cover main HDV routes will be established. The
plan is aligned with the European objectives
reflected in Alternative Fuels Directive adopted by
the EU Council on September 29.
The second phase of the plan, which is due to be
completed by 2019-2020, includes the
construction of nine additional stations. This
infrastructure build-up will be undertaken after the
evaluation of the results obtained in the first phase
and taking into account the development of the technology in Europe. The estimated investment for this second phase
is about €8 million.
The company, also based on the evolution of demand, will contemplate the development of new locations to increase
and improve customer access to LNG. Currently, there are around 4,000 vehicles using natural gas in Spain; most
of them are taxis, corporate fleets, city buses and garbage trucks powered by CNG.

Spain: strategic partnership plans to develop LNG bunkering in Ferrol
The Port Authority of Ferrol, Gas Natural Fenosa, Reganosa and Ferrol Container Terminal have joined to offer
LNG supply for LNG-powered ships in the ports of Ferrol and San Cibrao. They will also study which
infrastructure is needed for provisioning this fuel for both marine and road transportation. This alliance, which
will have an initial duration of two years, establishes a collaborative framework to promote energy efficiency in
the Ferrol port.
The initiative is connected to the “European directive of implantation of an infrastructure for alternative fuel”,
which promotes the creation of an LNG supply network in sea ports. In this context, the partners are interested
in positioning Ferrol as a reference Atlantic port because of its strategic position, its guarantee of access to
LNG through Mugardos terminal (property of Reganosa), and the presence of major shipyards.
This joint effort improves the position of Ferrol in the race for taking advantage in the services which will be
needed by ports in the future. One of the measures includes a viability study of LNG supply in the outer port and
an analysis of the provisioning needs of LNG in the port frame. The Port Authority of Ferrol-San Cibrao is
committed to promoting the emission reduction by using LNG in ships and vehicles linked to activity in the port.
Moreover, the direct implication of Ferrol Container Terminal in this agreement shows the interest in making
container ships to dock in the outer port, and that they could be supplied with LNG during their load and unload
operations. This will confer an operational capacity of great relevance to compete in the market of this kind of
transportation.

'LNG only viable way to lower truck CO2 footprint'
Germany’s Energy Agency recommends ambitious strategy for road transport
Energy-specific GHG-emissions
of diesel and LNG (Dena, 2014)
The increased use of liquefied natural
gas (LNG) is the only viable option to
reduce the carbon footprint of
Germany’s road transport sector in
the short to medium term. This is the
conclusion of a study carried out by
the German Energy Agency (Dena).
Dena published a so-called white
paper investigating the role LNG can
play in achieving the German
government’s objectives to reduce
CO2 emissions as well as the
country’s dependency on oil. The
energy agency concludes that, on
condition of a relevant market share,
LNG can enable a more
environmentally friendly transport of
goods at competitive prices. The risk
of a long-term reliance on government
subsidies is small.
To reach the necessary economy of
scale, Dena recommends building a
truck fleet running on LNG of about
10% of the total commercial vehicle
market by 2024. LNG sales should
reach 4% of total fuel sales. Key is
the coordinated cooperation between
GHG emissions in transport in Germany
(Dena, 2014)
GHG emissions well-to-wheel for LNG vs. diesel
(Dena, 2014)
December 2014
government and industry: investments
in refuelling infrastructure should be
secured by a policy supporting the
development of both supply and
demand.
German road freight transport, which
represents one quarter of total road
freight transport in the EU, presently
depends almost entirely on oil and
accounts for about 36% of diesel
used in Germany. Dena refers to a
number of European countries that
have already successfully invested in
LNG and that can set an example for
Germany.
The refuelling technology is both
mature and safe, as shown through
its successful application in North
America, parts of Europe and China.
Dedicated LNG engines fulfil the tight
Euro-VI emission standard, and low
noise levels make them ideal for
inner-city use and delivery services at
nighttimes.
The EU’s “Clean Power for
Transport” package highlights LNG as
a main alternative fuel option and calls
for national policy frameworks
advancing the build-up of LNG filling
stations along major motorways of
the Trans-European Transport
network by 2025. However, the
development of LNG as a fuel in
Germany has remained slow. To this
day the country has neither LNG filling
stations nor test truck fleets running
on LNG. Dena remarks that ‘it is too
risky to bet on the wrong fuel in the
low-margins logistics sector’, which it
identifies as why the German industry
has long been hesitant to make the
necessary investments in new
refuelling infrastructure and trucks.
A national strategy for LNG market
entry and growth in road-freight
transport is needed, Dena
emphasises. “The market alone will
not lead to the desired result – the
government has to coordinate the
launch of LNG in the transport
market politically, for instance in the
context of an inter-ministerial
platform,” says Dena’s Chief Executive
Stephan Kohler.
Dena’s political proposals include
specific targets for the establishment
of LNG as a fuel, swift extension of
the energy tax reduction on natural
gas & biomethane beyond 2018, and
the integration of gas-powered
commercial vehicles in public fleets.

Titanic tax increase for natural
gas unlikely after split in EU on
new Energy Taxation Directive
A large and adverse increase in taxation on natural gas as an
engine fuel has become unlikely after a split between EU
Member States on the proposed Energy Taxation Directive that
aimed to introduce a flat tax on all engine fuels by 2018. The
EU-Commission will now consider withdrawal of the Directive,
as all matters concerning taxation in the EU require unanimity.
(NGVA/Eurogas, 2014)
NGVA Europe would welcome a withdrawal of the Directive, says
Secretary General Lennart Pilskog, as “natural gas and bio-methane
would have been extremely heavily punished as the cleanest fuels.
Europe needs a smarter way to promote more sustainable mobility”. Tax
on natural gas is much lower than other fuels at the moment. Under the
Commission’s proposal, natural gas would have been subjected to the
same tax rate per tonne of CO2 as petrol, diesel and other fuels.
Natural gas however has lower emissions than other fossil fuels.
Applying the higher tax rate would have put natural gas, which is still in
development as an alternative to the conventional fuels, at a serious
disadvantage, possibly killing off the market completely.
According to recently adopted EU-Directive on the deployment of
alternative fuels infrastructure, EU Member States now need to develop
a comprehensive network of CNG and LNG refuelling infrastructure by
2020 and 2025 respectively. Europe needs to provide stability and
confidence to investors in natural gas infrastructure and users of natural
gas vehicles, in order to achieve its objectives.
The EU Ministers of Finance were asked to give their opinion, last month
during a Council meeting on 23 October, on a revised proposal of the
Directive. Both the UK and Germany rejected it outright, stressing that
further deliberations on the Directive would be fruitless as far as they
were concerned. They were supported by Latvia, Slovenia and Belgium.
France spoke out in support, arguing it would be a pity to stop after all
the energy put into the discussions. It was supported by Sweden, which
said there were some ‘important concepts’ in the Directive, and
Denmark. Other countries that spoke in favour of continuing working on
the Directive were Portugal and Spain, the latter arguing the results
were going ‘in the right direction’. Finland also supports the Directive but
rejected the revised Italian proposal, saying it was ‘watered down’ too
much and that it preferred the much more rigorous original proposal of
the European Commission.

Cavagna/Bigas CNG conversion kit,
finishes up its career in the World
FIA Alternative Energies Cup on a
victorious note. This car is probably
the most successful of the Abarth
brand, there’s never been one quite
like her! The team is already at
work for 2015 and we will definitely
be back on the race track and
ready to surprise people again. “
“On paper, this was the easiest
race for us” says Massimo Liverani
“That’s because we had gained a
significant advantage during the
racing season, at least in the
Drivers’ and Manufacturers’
categories, despite the
competitions in Serbia and
Bulgaria. Reading the time charts
today has never been such a relief!
Now it’s time to celebrate and
enjoy the success with the team. “
The Co-Drivers’ title went to
Isabelle Barciulli in an Alfa Mito,
making her the first woman in the
history of the FIA Alternative
Energies Cup to be crowned world
champion.
The Italians also triumphed in the
electric vehicles category, thanks to
Walter “Fuzzy” Kofler and Franco
Gaioni, a pair of South Tyrolean
drivers in a Think City. They came
to Greece and won hands down,
after having already wrapped up
the world title with a race to spare.

Changing NGV Safety (mis)Perceptions:
An On-going Reality
The sixth in the series of Clean Fuels
Consulting Critical Issues Workshops
since 2008 gathered 56 experts
from 16 countries on four
continents representing natural gas
vehicle (NGV) stakeholders, including
equipment manufacturers and
suppliers, vehicle manufacturers,
government policy makers and
others to identify and address the
most critical safety issues related to
compressed natural gas (CNG) and
liquefied natural gas (LNG) as vehicle
fuels. The presentations and
discussion focused on the current
standards and regulatory state-ofplay related to CNG and LNG fuel
storage systems, vehicle
technologies, and fuelling options.
The workshop participants
addressed existing gaps as well as
some of the opportunities to fill the
gaps in order to facilitate further
market development and
commercialization of NGVs.
Some of the key findings from the
presentation and discussions, as well
as conclusions drawn, indicate that
the safety of CNG and LNG
equipment and systems is an ongoing concern. Despite the best
efforts of the industry to learn from
accidents and incidents, safety issues
– some real and some perceived –
will be a continued topic of concern,
analysis and on-going improvement.
The findings from the workshop are
merely highlighted while the
conclusions are provided in full.

downloaded at

Findings
Understanding the Critical
Elements in the NGV Safety Chain
● Perception is reality and NGV
safety remains an issue. Despite
the familiarity with the fuel and
technology, NGVs are perceived to
be less safe than gasoline and diesel
vehicles by a large margin.
● NGVs are safe….if you handle
them safely. Most failures of NGV
systems are due to human error,
often due to a lack of knowledge.
● The safety ethic and the concept
of ‘quality’ vary widely from countryto-country. Buyers beware of NGV
systems coming from locations
where ‘cheap’ is a priority over safety
and quality.
● Equipment installers at the
workshop-level seem to be the
weakest point of the NGV value
chain, mainly because of the lack of
certified competence.
consider adopting hydrogen vehicle
industry practices. The
hydrogen/fuel cell industry has
received massive funding from
government and private sector
sources enabling the fuel cell vehicle
(FCV) industry to do research and
development that could also be
applicable for NGVs.
LNG Safety for Road, Sea and Rail
Technical Issues for CNG Safety
● Installers need to follow
appropriate installation codes.
● Clear installation requirements
should be specified.
● Periodic inspections and cylinder
recertification are weak links in the
safety chain.
Visual inspections of external cylinder
surfaces are the only practical way
to detect certain damage that might
occur during normal use.
● An automotive grade corrosion
performance test is required in NGV
industry standards.
● The NGV industry must continue to
understand the causes of NGV
incidents in order to effect changes
in codes/standards, resulting in
safer products. Incidents that occur
should be explored, analyzed and not
ignored (or concealed).
● The NGV industry should learn
from the hydrogen industry and
● There are potential hazards as well
as safeguards at each stage of the
LNG supply chain. Fixed parts of the
supply chain (e.g. ‘small scale’
fuelling) and mobile suppliers in the
fuel chain (e.g. virtual pipelines via
truck) require different measures to
ensure safety.
● Lessons learned from industrial
LNG applications are applied to
transport sectors.
● Marine sector NGV standards are
emanating from the top down.
Creating specifications for marine
LNG applications before completely
understanding and experiencing the
details of LNG fuelling and operating
procedures is very challenging.
● The rail sector use of LNG is in its
infancy and mostly is prohibited
except through exemptions and for
purposes of ‘proof of concept.’
Leadership and advocacy for natural
gas is needed in the railway industry

to determine what standards and
regulations should be developed and
which ones must be created.
Design and Safety of CNG and LNG
Fuelling Systems
● Development of natural gas as a
marine fuel will depend on the
development of robust safety
standards and regulations for
bunkering (fuelling ships) and related
activities.
● Proving safety through hazardous
operations studies (HAZOP) is being
done on a case-by-case, location-bylocation basis, which is very
expensive and time-consuming.
● There are no standards or
regulations for mobile fuelling
stations. Without specific
requirements, existing standards and
regulations for stationary fuelling,
moveable high pressure equipment
TPED (Transportable Pressure
Equipment Directive) and ADR
(dangerous good transport) are
being applied.
Conclusions
Changing perceptions into reality is a
necessary and on-going process that
needs continued attention and effort.
● Perception vs reality: The
perception of natural gas as a
vehicle fuel is that potential dangers
remain. The reality that NGVs (CNG
and LNG) are safe requires a
concerted and sustained
communications effort via all
channels to reach the widest
audience of policy makers,
regulators, and customers.
● A process to systematically track
CNG incidents internationally would
promote continued learning and
safety. A small group of industry
stakeholders have been tracking
CNG incidents and sharing
information on an informal but
coordinated basis internationally. The
challenge is to create a formal
process within a yet-to-be-determined
institution that can record incidents,
identify causes (likely from other
investigations) in order to continue
amassing technical information
designed to improve the safety
knowledge base of NGV technology.
● ‘Best practices’, sharing
experiences of various stakeholders
and preparing the proper
documentation for broad
dissemination could be a good way
to introduce safety concepts that are
not necessarily in the context of legal
regulations or even standards. It is a
method that also might encourage
equipment suppliers, who are
cautious about liability and sharing
what they consider their ‘intellectual
property, to provide data or
experiences that contribute to an
overall safety consciousness. This is
a role for equipment suppliers and
the various associations.
Harmonization of standards and
regulations as well as vigilant
implementation and enforcement
within each industry sector dealing
with gas (road, marine and, in
future, rail) will continue to be a
challenge but should be a long-term
priority that will promote safety,
reliability, and reduce costs for
manufacturers and customers.
● The NGV industry must police itself
to ensure safe system designs and
safe products. Implementation of the
standards/regulations differs widely
in different parts of the world.
Enforcement of regulations also
differs in different places, especially
in those countries that do not have a
robust ‘safety culture’. If equipment
emanates from countries where
safety and safe practices are not
well enforced, then all
customers/recipients must be
cautious to ensure that the
equipment conforms to the proper
standards and regulations.
● Countries entering the NGV
market should look to the highest
level of international standards and
regulations – ISO and UNECE – as
the best models to guide the safe
adoption of equipment, whether it is
for the road, marine or rail sectors.
Countries should not ‘borrow’
regulations from other countries.
● NGV stakeholders should
strengthen their cooperation through
active participation in the regulatory
and standards forums like the
UNECE Working Parties and ISO.
The joint participation of government
experts, industry and standardization

Continued from page 25
organizations make it possible to
improve harmonization and safety by
developing regulations also on the
basis of updated available standards.
Training is critical, desired and
available but costly. The NGV and
safety expertise needs to reach
more people throughout the NGV
value chain who need it the most in
order to help provide safe equipment
and practices to all NGV markets.
● Expertise and training is available
for a broad range of needs
(conversions, vehicle and fuelling
station operation, maintenance,
inspection, fire mitigation) but the
cost frequently is something the
stakeholders are not willing to pay
for. Without legal obligations for
certification or training, safety can
be compromised throughout the
NGV value chain. Manufacturers
often provide training for specific
technologies and associations can
assist. Disseminating knowledge
(i.e. training) to the right
stakeholders will continue to be a
challenge and should receive more
attention in order to maximize the
reach to the most stakeholders for a
reasonable price.
Expanding cooperation between the
advocates and stakeholders
supporting the different NGV
technologies and fuel sectors –
CNG, LNG & biomethane for road,
off-road, marine and rail
applications — will speed the
market entry and commercialization
of methane throughout all the
transportation sectors.
● Cross fertilization of knowledge,
expertise and experience between
the transport sectors (road, marine
and rail) is possible but it likely will
involve cooperation via industry
associations and standards
organizations at the various levels,
international, regional and national.
But this must be a goal first
embraced by the industry
organizations before such knowledgesharing can realistically take place.
Thereafter, the ‘A2A’, association-toassociation contacts could be an
effective and important method to
create the relationships needed to
move NGVs and methane forward
across all of the transportation
sectors.

Notes: The column 'theoretical monthly consumption' is calculating total monthly consumption if cars consume 180, buses 3000, trucks 800, and other vehicles 50 Nm3 per month
There is, of course, a huge difference between different truck types. A 44 ton truck may consume up to 8000 (not 800) Nm3 per month.
