European NGV News
Italy
Over the last 12 months, 7 out of every 100 vehicles registered have been CNG powered and over 90% of these are Fiat models.
The #1 OEM NGV market in the world has now a new model in the marketplace: Fiat introduced the Qubo Natural Power last September, available in two versions, both powered by the same 70 HP 1.4 engine (Euro5).
United Kingdom
The first biomethane-powered bus in the UK was launched at the University of East Anglia in the beginning of September. During the launch, parties majorly involved in the introduction of the technology gathered: UEA's Low Carbon Innovation Centre, Anglian Bus (operator), bus manufacturer Optare plc, and engine conversion specialist Hardstaff Group. The bus actually runs on a dual-fuel
biomethane/diesel system. The dual-fuel system was installed in a standard Optare Solo single-deck diesel midibus from the Anglian Bus fleet. The original Mercedes-Benz diesel engine was converted to operate on biomethane around 60-80% of the time. Hardstaff, which converted the bus, also supplies biomethane through its refuelling station. The project was mainly funded by CIVITAS, EU's initiative to promote cleaner and better transport in Europe's cities. It is expected this technology will be used by bus fleets all over UK and even across Europe in the future.
Sweden
Last July was the month chosen to start the construction of Europe's first liquid to compressed biogas (LCBG) refuelling station in Sundsvall City of Sweden. According to Cryostar SAS, Sundsvall will be the first city in the world to offer biomethane for vehicles through an LCBG facility. The refuelling station will be located near a major highway. AGA Gas AB with the support of Cryostar has built the LBG and LCNG refuelling station. AGA also owns and operates the station. Cryostar provides the high pressure pump, the line control system, and the programmable control panel for the whole station. Mitt Sverige Vatten will supply the liquefied biomethane. NGV use is aggressively promoted in the country. Both public and private sectors have been involved in the success of NGV adoption. Last July, the monthly NGV sales rate in Sweden was reported to rise from about 150 to more than 700 units since the introduction of the new Passat TSI EcoFuel early this year. More than half of all new cars sold are company cars, mainly medium-sized sedans or wagons, such as the mentioned VW Passat and Mercedes B 170 NGT.
Incentives
A 750 Euro subsidy for NGV purchase is available in Luxembourg. In Poland, the government offers excise duty exemption for CNG until October 2013. In Austria, since July 1st, 2008, the government offers a 500 Euro tax bonus for a new NGV registration. The country target is to open 200 CNG refuelling stations by 2010. In Italy, a CNG conversion gets a 650 Euro subsidy.

Notizie sul settore NGV europeo
Italia
Negli ultimi 12 mesi, 7 veicoli su 100 immatricolati funzionavano a metano e pi? del 90% erano dei modelli Fiat. L'Italia, che si vanta d'avere il primato mondiale dei veicoli alimentati a metano fatti direttamente dai costruttori adesso ha un nuovo modello in offerta: Fiat ha introdotto Qubo Natural Power il mese di settembre, disponibile in due versioni, ambedue alimentate dallo stesso motore della potenza di 70 CV 1.4 (Euro5).
Regno Unito
Il primo autobus a biometano nel Regno Unito ? stato lanciato all'universit? di East Anglia all'inizio di settembre. Per il lancio si sono riunite le parti coinvolte nell'introduzione di questa tecnologia: UEA's Low Carbon Innovation Centre, Anglian Bus (operatore), il costruttore di autobus Optare plc, e lo specialista in conversioni Hardstaff Group. L'autobus funziona con un sistema duale a biometano/diesel. Il sistema bi-fuel ? stato installato in un midibus
standard Optare Solo a diesel della flotta di Anglian Bus. Il motore a diesel originale Mercedes Benz ? stato convertito per funzionare a biometano per circa il 60-80% del tempo. Hardstaff, che ha convertito l'autobus, fornisce anche il biometano attraverso la sua stazione di rifornimento. Il progetto ? stato finanziato principalmente da CIVITAS, l'iniziativa dell'UE volta a promuovere un trasporto pi? pulito e migliore nelle citt? europee. In futuro si prevede di applicare questa tecnologia nelle flotte di autobus in tutto il Regno Unito e persino in Europa.
Svezia
Lo scorso mese di luglio ? iniziata la costruzione della prima stazione di rifornimento di biogas liquefatto compresso (LCBG) nella citt? di Sundsvall. Secondo Cryostar SAS, Sundsvall sar? la prima citt? al mondo ad offrire biometano per veicoli attraverso un dispositivo LCBG. La stazione di riforimento sar? ubicata vicino a un'autostrada. La stazione di rifornimento LCBG e LCNG ? stata costruita da AGA Gas AB con il sostegno di Cryostar. AGA ? anche titolare e gestore della stazione. Cryostar mette a disposizione la pompa ad alta pressione, il sistema di controllo della linea e il pannello di controllo programmabile per l'intera stazione. Mitt Sverige Vatten fornir? il biometano liquefatto. Nel paese l'uso di veicoli a metano viene promosso in modo aggressivo. Sia il settore privato che pubblico sono stati coinvolti nel successo dell'adozione di NGV. Lo scorso mese di luglio le vendite mensili di veicoli a metano in Svezia sono aumentate di 150 unit?, raggiungendo il numero di 700 sin dall'introduzione del nuovo modello Passat TSI EcoFuel all'inizio di quest'anno. Per oltre la met? dei veicoli nuovi venduti, si tratta di veicoli aziendali, principalmente di berline o station wagon di medie dimensioni, come la VW Passat e la Mercedes B 170 NGT.
Incentivi
Nel Lussemburgo ? disponibile un sussidio di 750 Euro per l'acquisto di un veicolo a metano.In Polonia il governo offre l'esenzione dall'imposta sul dazio per CNG fino alla fine di ottobre 2013.In Austria, dal 1? luglio 2008 il governo offre un bonus di 500 Euro sulle tasse per l'immatricolazione di un nuovo veicolo a metano. L'obiettivo del paese ? quello di aprire 200 stazioni di rifornimento CNG entro il 2010.In Italia, per una conversione CNG si riceve un sussidio di 650 Euro.
