A new compressed natural gas (CNG) refueling station for motor vehicles, developed in collaboration between Tamoil Italia and Snam4Mobility, was inaugurated in Trentino-Alto Adige, along the Brenner motorway.

The plant, installed in the Tamoil service area of Paganella Est, is part of the agreement signed in 2019 between Tamoil Italia and Snam4Mobility to expand the infrastructure to support sustainable natural gas mobility in Italy.

The Tamoil station in Paganella Est further expands the supply of natural gas along the A22, becoming the first motorway station to supply biomethane taken from the Snam network.

The methane supply option adds to the 6 methane filling stations already present on the motorway route, according to Carlo Costa, General Technical Director of Autostrada del Brennero.

Other stations created in collaboration by the two companies will be inaugurated by May in Abruzzo (Mozzagrogna), Lombardy (Madignano), Marche (Ascoli Piceno) and Piedmont (Pinerolo).
