Naturgy opens first public CNG station in Mataró, Barcelona
Naturgy has opened the first public natural gas station for vehicles in the city of Mataró. It is located in the industrial estate of Les Hortes, a strategic location due to its proximity to main brand dealers that commercializes CNG vehicles and companies with large fleets. Also, this station provides a new refueling point to the Maresme region and, given its location at the foot of the C-32 motorway, it allows servicing the vehicles that travel along the coast.
This new CNG station joins the other six facilities that Naturgy manages in the province of Barcelona: three in Barcelona (Bon Pastor, Marenostrum-Litoral and Zona Franca), L’Hospitalet de Llobregat, Santa Perpètua de Mogoda and Viladecans.
The implementation of this refueling site is part of the company’s project to promote sustainable mobility, whose objective is to boost the use of natural gas as fuel as the best alternative to fossil fuels derived from petroleum. In addition, it is another step in Naturgy’s commitment to move forward in the transition to clean fuel models in transport that contribute to improving air quality and, therefore, the health of people.
The new map of NGV refueling facilities in Spain will make it possible to meet the increasing demand in the coming years and reinforce the availability of this fuel in the market, given the increase in vehicles propelled by natural gas.
Naturgy (formerly Gas Natural Fenosa) is one of the main supporters of sustainable mobility and a pioneer in the promotion of natural gas in the Iberian Peninsula, a region that has experienced great growth in the adoption of CNG and LNG as transportation fuels. In this extremely encouraging scenario, AltFuels Iberia 2019 will take place on 11-14 June at IFEMA Trade Center, Madrid. It will be an event consisting of first level conferences and exhibition of vehicles of all kinds, refueling stations, components, plants, road and marine engines, as well as the entire universe of the alternative fuels industry with the latest technological developments, multiple options for networking, business and new advances.
