This new public service station located in the town of Valdemoro will supply compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG). • The fleet of AISA buses in the towns of Pinto, Valdemoro and Ciempozuelos will be the main beneficiary of these gas stations. The minister for transport, housing and infrastructure in the Community of Madrid, Pedro Rollán Ojeda and Javier Uriarte, Endesa’s general director of marketing, today inaugurated the company’s first public service station that will supply natural gas to fuel vehicles in Madrid, specifically in the town of Valdemoro. Endesa’s gas station is public and will supply both compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG). With this station in Valdemoro, Endesa will have five stations working over the next few months as part of the company’s natural gas vehicle development plan implemented in Spain and France. Endesa opened its first natural gas fuelling station for vehicles in the Balearic Islands, in Palma de Mallorca. Then, in 2015, Endesa inaugurated its first gas station in Lyon, France and this station in Valdemoro has now joined this list. The company’s deployment plan includes the inauguration, during the first six months of the year, of a new gas station in Zaragoza and another in Cadiz.stazione endesa Endesa’s commitment to natural gas for fuelling vehicles is based on the significant economic and environmental benefits of this fuel compared with traditional fuels. The use of natural gas in vehicles reduces nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions by 70% and sulphur oxide (SOx) emissions by practically 100%. Furthermore, it reduces 95% of particle emissions and the engines, which produce half the noise and vibrations, emit 20% less CO2 into the atmosphere. The new supply point inaugurated today is located in the town of Valdemoro, which is easily accessed from exit 29 on the A-4 and is used by over 40,000 vehicles a day. The new station will initially supply this fuel to a fleet of buses belonging to AISA in the towns of Pinto, Valdemoro and Ciempozuelos. AISA currently has 200 vehicles, 10% of which will be natural gas vehicles before the end of the year, which will not only improve service competitiveness and comfort for passengers, but also prevent the emission of over 40 tonnes of NOx and 32 tonnes of SO2. Natural gas is used in over 14 million vehicles worldwide, 1.3 million of which are currently located in Europe. In Spain the NGV market is mainly urban bus fleets, municipal service fleets and long-distance road transport vehicles. Natural gas vehicles represent savings of almost 50% over petrol vehicles and 35% over diesel vehicles, with very similar maintenance costs, the same supply waiting times and an autonomy of around 300-400 km or even more in the case of liquefied natural gas. http://www.endesa.com/en/saladeprensa/noticias/Endesa-inaugurates-its-first-natural-gas-vehicle-plant-in-Madrid Enel_Logo_2013_CMYK_Positive
