UK supermarket giant Asda has opened its LNG refuelling station at Avonmouth, in Bristol, to third parties. The station is supplied by BOC and increases the network of stations available for use.

BOC, a member of The Linde Group, announced the news during Multimodal 2015, the three-day exhibition and seminar event at the NEC in Birmingham on 28-30 April 2015. The company is also showcasing its recently launched mobile LNG refueller on Stand 1142.

The new dedicated dual fuel LNG refuelling station at Asda Logistics Services was opened last year at the chill distribution centre in Avonmouth, near Bristol. The station incorporates the latest ‘zero loss’ refuelling technology, developed by BOC, which uses cryogenic cooling to ‘temperature-condition’ the fuel just prior to dispensing.

The refuelling station supports the UK supermarket chain’s fleet of 52 dual fuel Volvo trucks at the site and is the latest development in Asda’s transport sustainability strategy, which includes a target to reduce emissions from its transport fleet by 60% (between 2005 and 2015).
