Don Trucking in LNG fuel move

Dutch-based transport company Don Trucking is turning to liquefied natural gas (LNG) as fuel for its fleet of trucks to reduce emissions.

The company has signed a contract with Iveco Poland, a unit of the Italian truck maker, for the delivery of 20 LNG-powered Stralis trucks with 460 hp.

These trucks will be fuelled by a unit of the Hague-based LNG giant Shell under a recent deal the two companies have signed.

The trucks will fuel LNG at the Shell network in the Netherlands (Waalhaven/Rotterdam), Belgium (Herstal) and Germany (Hamburg).

Looking forward, Don Trucking aims to replace its entire fleet of vehicles with trucks that run on LNG.
