The project, which was selected for funding under the 2011 TEN-T Annual Call, will look at the possible large scale implementation of LNG refueling stations across Spain and the EU by conducting a series of studies and pilots.
Seven different LNG refueling stations will be installed as part of the project to test different kinds of designs for this type of infrastructure. The LNG logistics chain as well as the potential business models for a regional and/or European roll-out of filling stations will also be analyzed to paint a broader picture.

Additionally, Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) communication technologies will be integrated within the LNG refueling stations and could incorporate technologies such as intelligent routing, station monitoring, pricing policy and payment methods.
The project is set to be completed by the end of 2014.
