Snam4Mobility launches its first natural gas and biomethane self-service station
Snam4Mobility, Snam’s subsidiary operating in the sustainable mobility sector, today inaugurated in Verona its first self-service compressed natural gas (CNG) and biomethane (Bio-CNG) refuelling station, allowing motorists to refuel in complete autonomy, 24 hours a day.
The distributor, managed by Goldengas, will only supply alternative and ecological fuels, including advanced biomethane from the Snam plant in Albairate, in the province of Milan, obtained from organic waste. The plant is currently undergoing further expansion with the construction of the third digester and the adaptation of the Forsu pre-treatment systems: the new pre-treatment and upgrading lines are realized by IES Biogas.
The opening of the plant, the 1500th compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant in Italy, was celebrated with an event attended by the mayor of Verona Federico Sboarina, the president of NGV Italy Mariarosa Baroni the president of Assogasmetano Flavio Merigo, as well as representatives from the car sector such as SEAT – a reference point within the Volkswagen Group for the development of alternative fuel technology – and from the commercial vehicles sector such as IVECO, companies committed to sustainable mobility using natural gas, as well as from Snam4Mobility and Goldengas.
To enable all motorists to refuel in self-service mode in complete safety, following the issuance of the relevant decree, in November 2020 Snam launched the iovadoametano.it website, a reference portal on the sector of sustainable mobility using natural gas and biomethane, with a special video tutorial.
