Chart Industries recently announced that it has completed the installation and commissioning of Europe’s largest LNG fueling station for Alternoil.
Alternoil will operate the fueling station, which is located on Germany’s main A1 highway near the city of Bakum, following final approval by local authorities, expected in December 2019.
Chart’s proprietary ‘Saturation on the Fly’ (SoF) technology eliminates methane emissions to atmosphere and recognizes both spark ignited and compression engines which allows the station to fuel all LNG trucks, regardless of original equipment manufacturer or brand. SoF also improves the station’s overall energy management and provides a total refueling time consistent with equivalent diesel engine vehicles.
Alternoil is planning further LNG filling stations in their intended German network, including in Fulda, Cologne, Hamburg, Bremen and Remscheid.
