 RWE began operation of a new compressed natural gas (CNG) refuelling station in Brno today. The CNG station is located on Hviezdoslavova ulice and is part of a classic Benzina filling station.

 The station is open non-stop, 24 hours daily. Tanking up with CNG can be paid directly at the Benzina cash using existing CNG cards, bank cards, fleet cards and in cash. Motorists thus no longer need to drive their vehicles onto gas company or public transport company grounds for CNG and can take full advantage of all the services that Benzina offers at its filling stations.

 The price of CNG is half that of petrol or diesel, meaning CNG vehicles can save their owners considerable amounts in operating costs. RWE currently operates 10 filling stations around the Czech Republic and is the largest retailer of CNG on the market.
