Sommacampagna, in the vicinity of Verona, has a new LNG & CNG fueling station owned by Dalla Bernardina F.lli, a company specialized in the trading of petroleum products and already owner of nine other refueling points in the province of Verona (Caselle, Castermano, Lugagnano, San Giovanni Lupatoto, Verona).
The DB Fuel flag system distributes all the main types of fuel, with three double multi dispensers in self-service mode for cars, two high flow rate for heavy fuel oil, two doubles for compressed methane, one double for LPG, and LNG dispensers that can refuel two heavy-duty trucks at the same time and very soon you can even recharge electric cars.
The station, which covers an area of 13,700 square meters, is located at only 400 meters from the A4 motorway exit of Sommacampagna and 5 km from the intersection with the A22 del Brennero, thus serving a very high area, which connects Northern Italy and the whole national territory and with the major European countries. The tank that supplies the station has a capacity of 80,000 liters.
The inauguration, which took place last June 1, was an opportunity to talk of possible uses of natural gas and sustainable transport, understood both as a necessity and as an opportunity, during the “Metano naturally powerful "where Iveco illustrated its vision, result of more than twenty years of experience in the field of alternative powered vehicles. Massimo Santori - Institutional Relations of CNH industrial - explained in his speech: «The technology that uses clean fuels like natural gas or biomethane - for which our entire range of products is already prepared - is the most mature and immediately practicable solution to deal concretely with the energy transition and to achieve sustainable transport, both on an environmental level and on the economic one, even on the routes subject to specific traffic constraints such as, for example, the Brenner and the Alpine itineraries.
Network development infrastructural supply of LNG on the transalpine axes finally makes possible crossing the Alps with ecological and silent trucks ».
