Gasum strengthens its gas filling station network for heavy-duty transport in the Nordics with the opening of a new station in Lieto, Finland. Together with the gas filling station in Turku Harbor, the new station in Lieto, located in Avanti business at Eteläkaari 1, strengthens the distribution of liquefied natural gas (LNG) and liquefied biogas (LBG) for the needs of long-haul transport.

“We’re very proud to have opened a new station in Lieto and that it strengthens the Nordic gas filling station network. Consumers and lawmakers increasingly expect actors in the heavy-duty transport sector to provide eco-friendly services. It is important to improve accessibility to low-emission fuel solutions so that Nordic freight can be transported increasingly more cleanly. Each new gas filling station takes us closer to that goal,” says Jani Arala, Senior Sales Manager, Traffic, Gasum.

Under the new emissions regulations adopted by the EU in 2019, carbon dioxide emissions from heavy-duty vehicles must be reduced by 30% by 2030. In Finland, road traffic emissions must be halved by 2030 compared to 2005 levels.
