Calor在北爱尔兰推出LNG驱动的沃尔沃卡车

英国液化天然气供应商Calor和Dennison广告公司在Dennison的巴利克莱尔(Ballyclare)总部仓库推出了以天然气为动力的沃尔沃(Volvo)卡车系列。

在欧洲市场的液化天然气销售出现显著增长之后，北爱尔兰市场对液化天然气兴趣大增。在欧洲，液化天然气已被公认为是成本较低、排放量较低的柴油替代品。。

Calor表示，计划在2020年将其加油网络扩展到北爱尔兰。因此，该公司将为更大的车队提供加气站，并使液化天然气在更多贸易中成为可用燃料。

沃尔沃英国和爱尔兰卡车公司(Volvo Trucks UK & Ireland)产品管理主管约翰•科默(John Comer)表示:“……液化天然气是市场上最倾向的用于长时间和重型运输的燃料替代品，沃尔沃的新燃气卡车在性能和燃料消耗方面都可以与柴油卡车竞争。”

Calor首席执行官邓肯•奥斯本(Duncan O***orne)补充称:“Calor致力于在北爱尔兰的液化天然气业务中发挥作用。……​我们已经开始将我们的重型车队从柴油改为液化天然气，以减少20%的二氧化碳排放。

“从长期来看，我们认为企业有机会通过转向生物液化天然气来大幅减少其车队的碳排放。这将使用相同的车队和燃料补给基础设施——对这种替代燃料技术的投资是经得起时间考验的。”

Calor launches LNG-powered Volvo trucks in Northern Ireland

UK provider of liquefied natural gas Calor and Dennison Commercials have launched the gas-powered Volvo truck range at Dennison’s Ballyclare head office depot.

The surge of interest in LNG in Northern Ireland follows the significant growth of LNG sales in Europe, where it is now well established as the lower cost, lower-emission alternative to diesel.

Calor said that it was set to extend its re-fuelling network to Northern Ireland in 2020. As a result, the company would provide refueling stations for larger fleets and make LNG an accessible solution for many businesses.

John Comer, head of product management at Volvo Trucks UK & Ireland, said: “[…] liquefied gas is the best climate alternative align="justify">Duncan O***orne, CEO of Calor, added: “Calor is committed to the role out of LNG in Northern Ireland. […] we have already started switching our HGV fleet from diesel to LNG to achieve 20 percent CO2 emission reductions.

“Long-term, we see the opportunity for businesses to significantly reduce their fleet’s carbon footprint with a switch to BioLNG. This would operate using the same fleet and refueling infrastructure – future-proofing the investment in this alternative fuel technology.“
