Emterra invests $50M in Canada's largest CNG station
Emterra Group has opened Canada's largest public compressed natural gas (CNG) fuelling station in Mississauga, Ontario, through a $50 million investment.
The CNG fuelling station is part of Emterra's new capability to provide recycling and waste collection services to a significant portion of the Region of Peel's residents and businesses, with cleaner-burning, quieter-running, CNG-fuelled trucks.
It is the fourth CNG station which the Emterra Group opens. The inauguration of the new station was attended by Ontario's Minister of the Environment and Climate Change, Glen Murray and Peel Region Chair Frank Dale.
The fast fill CNG fuelling station, along with the purchase and upgrade of a heavy truck maintenance facility certified to CNG requirements represent a $50 million investment in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA).
“The 'fast-fill' station will be open to other fleets and operators of CNG vehicles, expanding opportunities for the transportation sector in and around the GTA to 'go greener' using a lower cost fuel, helping to make Ontario trucking businesses more competitive and sustainable," said Emterra's Founder and CEO Emmie Leung.
