PitPoint.LNG launches new German fueling station

PitPoint.LNG and TotalEnergies have launched a new liquefied natural gas fueling station for trucks in Germany.

The Netherlands-based PitPoint.LNG is a joint venture between TotalEnergies Gas Mobility and SHV Energy’s Primagaz.

According to a social media post by PitPoint.LNG, the firm opened the new station with two LNG dispensers at TotalEnergies Autohof Pfefferhöhe in Alsfeld.

The station is located near the Scandinavian-Mediterranean corridor on the A5, which serves as an important north-south connection between Frankfurt and Kassel, it said.

In November, TotalEnergies Mobility Solutions said it had opened a new facility in partnership with PitPoint.LNG in Lippetal, Germany.

TotalEnergies is planning to open more LNG stations in Europe, and in particular in Germany.
