The forthcoming capital of this fuel will host NGV2011 Berlin
Germany, deep inside the NGV world map
There are already more than 13 million methane vehicles worldwide and 4,000 units are switched to NGV on a daily basis. As for Europe, 2010 finished with 18% more units powered by this fuel, compared to 2009. Also, CNG buses and trucks have a significant role in the continent: they consume 73.5% of methane applied to vehicles, while in the rest of the world the average is 40.5%.
Regarding Germany, the federal government has clearly expressed its support for natural gas and biomethane as fuels and advocates for the increased use of this type of vehicles. In line with this, tax cuts in those units are expected for an indefinite period of time.
Berlin has been chosen as venue since it is the capital of the second largest NGV market in Western Europe and epicenter of a natural gas vehicles industry with much to show, not only in terms of its components segment but also for the 11 OEMs that participate in the market with their NGVs of all types and functions.
All these factors make NGV2011 Berlin, the 2nd NGVA Europe International Show & Workshops, an excellent opportunity to be aware of what this industry has to offer. It will be held on June 7-9 in Messe Berlin.
Everything at hand
The exhibition will take place in hall 18 -with a gross area of 4,000 m2 -. The most important companies of the NGV industry have already booked their stand and all the activities of the segment will be present.
The workshops will be held in the Palais am Funkturm, strategically located next to exhibition hall 18. On this occasion, the aim is to boost the traditional conferences scene of the sector by promoting a different and attractive interaction with the participants, with diverse facilitators and speakers, such as Gabriele Gozzi, President of NGV Global and Timm Kehler, erdas mobil Managing Director, among many others.
