Biomethane Iveco truck starts tests

Gasrec, a British company that produces liquid biomethane fuel, Veolia, which works in waste management and truck manufacturer Iveco have joined forces to test a new truck. The CNG Iveco Daily Light will be run for six months on biomethane obtained from a landfill in Surrey by Gasrec. It will be compared alongside regular CNG-powered Iveco Dailys to check performance and emissions. The vehicle will be refuelled at a refuelling station installed by Gasrec at Camden Council's York Way depot. According to Gasrec, biomethane is the most sustainable biofuel available and it reduces emissions by 70 percent, compared to regular diesel trucks. Thanks to Jason for the tip.
