November 30, 2023. Republic of Ireland’s first dedicated unmanned Bio-CNG station will support Irish business to decarbonize their transport fleets with clean and sustainable Bio-CNG fuel.
Today, large commercial and industrial energy supplier Flogas Enterprise with Gas Networks Ireland turn the sod on Flogas Enterprise’s Bio-CNG refuelling station at St Margarets in North County Dublin.
The 2,900 square metre station will open in April 2024 and will be the Republic of Ireland’s first dedicated Bio-CNG station supporting Irish business to decarbonize their commercial transport fleets with clean and sustainable Bio-CNG fuel.
The renewable fuel for the new station will be predominately sourced from a new anaerobic digestion (AD) plant in Co. Cork and injected into the gas network. It will then be supplied to the station through the Renewable Gas Certification scheme which tracks the allocation of the biomethane from the point of injection into the grid to the point of withdrawal at individual refueling stations. This dedicated 100% Bio-CNG station is another renewable market “first” for Flogas Enterprise having already been the first energy supplier in Ireland to supply biomethane through the gas network to companies like Tesco and Diageo in 2020.
The new Flogas Enterprise Bio-CNG refueling station is supported by Gas Networks Ireland’s Causeway project.
