New Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Filling Station Opens

Citizens of Slavonski Brod on 26 October got a new compressed natural gas (CNG) filling station. This is the first self-serve (unattended) and fully automated CNG filling station of the five that are already operating in Croatia. The natural gas is compressed at 250 bars and combustion of this type of gas is less harmful to the environment and contributes to reducing air pollution (less nitrogen oxide, carbon monoxide and particulate matter – PM). CNG takes up little space and is therefore a suitable fuel for automobiles, but also for commercial vehicles such as trucks and buses. This energy achieves significant financial savings ranging from 30 to 40% compared to vehicles powered by petrol or diesel engines.
