Network of CNG stations in UK

Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) has gained importance in the United Kingdom as a cleaner and cheaper alternative to traditional fossil fuels. In this article, we present a comprehensive analysis of CNG stations in the country, their historical evolution, and the projects planned for the coming years.

Evolution of CNG Stations in the UK

The first CNG filling station in the UK was opened in 1999, in a bid for sustainable energy alternatives. Since then, the number of stations has grown slowly due to factors such as limited investment and developing infrastructure. However, in recent years, there has been a significant push in station expansion, driven by government policies in favour of green mobility and reducing carbon emissions.

By 2024, the number of CNG stations in the UK has reached more than 50, with projections for significant growth in the coming years.

The expansion of the CNG station network will allow more drivers to opt for this cleaner and more efficient alternative.
