LIQAL steps into German LNG market with FAS partnership

The two companies will develop turnkey solution to set up LNG refuelling stations in Germany.

Dutch LNG technology developer LIQAL announces a new partnership with German EPC company Flüssiggas-Anlagen GmbH (FAS).

The goal of the partnership is to supply turnkey, high performance LNG refuelling stations, along with the flexibility of local maintenance for station operators throughout Germany.

LIQAL and FAS are committed to supporting the transition to LNG and bio-LNG across Europe and to contribute to a greener transport sector. The agreement, signed on November 15, will strengthen collaboration between these European LNG players in one of the largest markets in Europe.

“The combined efforts of FAS and LIQAL will allow German gas and transportation companies to provide a full range of services at the highest technological level, in the shortest possible time,” said FAS Director Alexander Schneider.

The market for LNG as a transport fuel is growing strongly in Germany, thanks in part to stable tax schemes and a road tax exemption for LNG-powered trucks until the end of 2023.
