HAM Group celebrates the delivery in Saint Quentin Fallavier, France, of its 100th LNG service station, which reaffirms them as the main reference in the natural gas vehicle sector.
A recent study by NGVA Europe, the Association of Natural Gas and Biogas Vehicles, indicates that in Europe there are 400 service stations that allow you to refuel liquefied natural gas. 1 in 4 of these LNG service stations has been designed, built and commissioned by HAM, many of them being owned by us and forming part our network of service stations. You can enjoy the reliability of fixed and mobile service stations, with the HAM quality seal, in Belgium, the Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, Poland, Slovakia, Spain, Switzerland and the UK.
The use of liquefied natural gas in transportation is an important catalyst for climate neutrality, being a real, clean and safe alternative to traditional fossil fuels, drastically reducing emissions of fine particles, nitrogen oxides and CO2, allowing a higher air quality and helping to mitigate global warming. In addition, LNG enables significant fuel cost savings.
HAM was a pioneer in Spain in 2000 when it added to its fleet 10 trucks, acquired in the US, powered by liquefied natural gas, taking on a major environmental challenge, with the aim of reducing polluting emissions from our fleet, also building the first vehicular LNG plant in Europe for the refuelling of these vehicles. Later, in 2009 they designed and built the first public natural gas vehicle service station in Spain, located in Abrera, Barcelona.
HAM will continue to bet on natural gas, a rapidly developing market with great potential to achieve the decarbonisation of road transport, located in Vilanant (Girona) and Faenza (Italy).
HAM will design, manufacture and operate all the necessary equipment to optimize the process: upgrading, bio-CNG compression, bio-LNG liquefaction, transportation through virtual gas pipeline and sale of biomethane at service stations.
