Enagás has already been supplying LNG at the Huelva and Barcelona regasification terminals. So far, over 300 LNG bunker refuellings for small-scale vessels have taken place at these two terminals, the firm said. 

Enagás' bio-LNG is certified by the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification of the European Union (ISCC EU), and it is produced from industrial and domestic organic waste, the company said. 

Bio-LNG, also known as liquefied biomethane (LBM), is produced from biogas generated through the anaerobic digestion of waste feedstocks like organic waste.

Bio-LNG is a drop-in fuel which means that dual-fuel LNG vessels can run on bio-LNG without any need for new modifications.
