June 21 (LNGJ) - The southwest Indian state of Kerala is starting a trial of LNG-powered buses in the first stage of a possible nationwide roll-out. The LNG and the buses are being supplied to the Kerala State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) by Petronet LNG, owner of the Kochi import terminal in Kerala as well as India’s largest terminal at Dahej, north of Mumbai. The first service of the LNG-powered buses from the KSRTC’s central bus station at Thampanoor in Kochi will be flagged off by state officials. The KSRTC has already drawn up plans to convert several hundred diesel-fuelled buses to LNG.
