Dutch company Rolande has opened a bio-LNG truck filling station on the A9 motorway in Grossmehring, near the Bavarian city of Ingolstadt. It is the Tilburg-based company’s ninth filling station in Germany. CEO Jolon van der Schuit says he will “continue to invest in sustainable transport”.

The bio-LNG filling station has been built on the A9, one of Europe’s most important north-south connections. Rolande says the new station gives transport companies direct access to fossil-free fuel. The self-service station is accessible 24 hours a day and has two LNG refuelling facilities. All common LNG-fuelled trucks can use it. Spacious access roads make it ideally suited to heavy trucks in international long-distance transport, according to Rolande.

Bio-LNG is a completely fossil-free fuel produced from organic waste products such as manure or food waste. Freight transport can therefore achieve up to 100 per cent CO2 reduction compared to diesel.

Targeted investments

With the new location in southern Germany, Rolande expands to 27 of its own LNG filling stations in Europe and a growing network of partners. “With the new location in Grossmehring, we are creating an important additional link between southern Germany and our existing network in the Benelux,” says CEO Jolon van der Schuit. “We continue to make targeted investments in expanding our network to accelerate the transition to sustainable transport across Europe, without compromising on earning power, range or availability.”

Rolande is an international provider of bio-LNG. A market leader in the Netherlands, the company operates 25 of its own filling stations in Europe and a growing network of partners. The aim of the Tilburg-based company is to make heavy transport ready for the future with clean, available and economical fuels.
