European Commission to put controls on emissions from heavy-duty vehicles – liquefied natural gas and biogas decisive in achieving emissions target
The European Commission has proposed limits to CO2 emissions from heavy-duty vehicles. The expanding liquefied natural gas infrastructure enables significant emission reductions in road transport in a cost-effective manner. Liquefied natural gas and liquefied biogas are fuels that enable the immediate achievement of the targets set by the Commission.According to the Commission’s proposal, emissions from heavy-duty vehicles will have to be reduced by 15% by 2025 and by at least 30% by 2030 from the 2019 level. Heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs), which cover trucks, buses and coaches, currently
