Grupo Ham, the Spanish company from Europe’s largest importing nation which has opened almost 100 filling stations amounting to around 25 percent of existing facilities in Western Europe for LNG-powered trucks and other vehicles, has opened another facility in the city of Seville.
HAM said it opened a new LNG service station in Dos Hermanas, Seville, located in 8 Río Viejo street of La Isla Industrial Estate, next to the Autovía del Sur, also known as the Andalucía highway, one of the six main highways in Spain and the main transportation route between the centre of Spain and the south of the Iberian Peninsula.
HAM has installed a mobile unit in Dos Hermanas that allows the refuelling of LNG for heavy vehicles and trucks.
“It has a hose that allows users to refuel quickly and safely, and a payment terminal where you can pay with any debit or credit card or the HAM Card for professional use,” said the company.
“With the new opening of HAM Dos Hermanas LNG, our network currently has more than 90 service stations, available on the main European and Spanish transport routes,” it added.
EU expansion
The Spanish group said that apart from Spain it now had an expanding European Union-wide service network of stations including Belgium, the Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, Poland, Slovakia and Switzerland.
“At HAM Group we work in continuous contact with our clients, offering them products and services that are adapted to their real energy needs, respectful of the environment by reducing emissions of fine particles, oxides nitrous and CO2,” the company stated.
The group also recently launched a new concept of mobile and transportable service stations.
Its EDUX product has been developed by its subsidiary HAM Criogénica, together with HAM’s research and development team.
The EDUX service station allows owners and operators to store and supply LNG for all types of trucks and heavy vehicles, keeping the liquid sub-cooled and adapting to the optimal temperature of the different brands.
The mobile units offer fast re-fuelling for Volvo, Scania or Iveco LNG-powered trucks. At the same time, the units allow fuel filling for compressed natural gas in cars, light vehicles and trucks.
The group has also expanded its network by opening several natural gas stations in the South American nations of Chile and Peru.
“EDUX is a modern mobile service station, which is monitored remotely, by registering different parameters, always guaranteeing its perfect operation and allowing a quick solution to any incident,” explained HAM.
