All of the new stations are situated within the boundaries of the respective localities while also having convenient exits to federal and regional highways.
For instance, the stations now serve as additional CNG filling points on the routes that link Adygea and the Krasnodar Territory, Bashkortostan and the Chelyabinsk Region, the Astrakhan and Vologda Regions, the Kemerovo and Tomsk Regions, and the Rostov and Voronezh Regions.
The aggregate design capacity of the newly launched stations is 37.8 million m3 of gas per year.
They are able to provide eco-friendly and cost-efficient fuel to about 1,500 vehicles of various types – passenger transport, municipal vehicles, and taxis – every day.
Natural gas (methane) is the most cost-effective and eco-friendly motor fuel.
It costs the drivers of methane-powered passenger cars around RUB 2 per km driven.
In terms of fuel consumption, 1 m3 of methane is equivalent to 1 liter of gasoline.
Methane-driven vehicles have repeatedly proven their reliability during international long-distance auto races and sports competitions.
