Gasrec supplies of biomethane soar
Gasrec has reported the highest demand for biomethane in the company’s history - with volumes reaching an all-time high in June.
The company said this was set to continue rising thanks to pending orders from fleets for new gas-powered trucks.
June’s gas sales represented a 250% increase versus March 2020, when demand had been soaring prior to the pandemic.
James Westcott, chief operating officer at Gasrec, said: “Fleets are under pressure from customers to decarbonise, and Bio-LNG (liquified natural gas) is the most viable, readily-available solution – plus it’s suitable for longer-haul missions, with quick refuelling times.
“This year we’ve already opened three new refuelling facilities in Lutterworth, Fradley Park and South Elmsall, increasing our network to 16 sites, and with three more due to be installed before the end of the year.”
He added: “Our fuels are once again significantly cheaper than diesel, meaning customers can save money whilst improving sustainability.
“For fleets looking at gas trucks today, our number one message is to talk to your fuel provider as soon as possible, to ensure they can have the refuelling infrastructure in place where needed and understand gas pricing. The demand right now is exceptional.”
