Madrid/Spain, 14th April 2009; the Environmental Agency of the Madrid Municipality one year ago promoted the creation of the "Foro Pro Clima Madrid". This forum was designed to be an exchange platform for environmental innovation ideas and also for developing new ways of pollution control.
The forum is an initiative of the City of Madrid and is open to companies that would like to play a role in the fight against atmospheric pollution and push Madrid to a more sustainable development.
A number of Spanish companies, operating in the field of food & beverage distribution, construction, delivery, telecommunication and other services, now conjointly declared their commitment to increase the percentage of cleaner vehicles, such as NGVs, in their motor pool. In the last "Foro Pro Clima" meeting, held on April 14th in Madrid, the consortium of more than 35 major companies signed an agreement to incorporate eco-friendly vehicles within the next three years, then accounting for 6% of their respective fleets.
Going in line with this significant achievement, NGVA Europe member IVECO recently announced to supply the fleet owners for cleaning services in Barcelona, Spain, with over 370 CNG light, medium and heavy vehicles (see picture). Consequently, the complete city cleaning will be done by NGVs once the municipality of Barcelona has incorporated all IVECO CNG vehicles.
