Union Energy of Singapore has opened it new CNG fuelling facility on Old Tuck Road near Jurong East, with twenty five of the forty six compressed natural gas pumps operational just four months after construction commenced in April. When completed, the station will be the world’s largest CNG filling station, certified by the Guiness Book of Records, with 2 more dispensers than the current largest station located in Thailand. The official opening is planned for Sept 9, when all pumps are expected to be operational.
Union Energy managing director Teo Kiang Ang is reportedly now looking to build a few more stations in the northern and eastern parts of Singapore, according to asiaone’s Motoring news. With the Toh Tuck station, there are now four CNG stations serving users on the mainland. Local NGV growth, particularly in taxi numbers, is expected to provide ample demand.
