KRASNODAR, April 21 Viktor Zubkov, Chairman of the Board of Directors of PJSC Gazprom, asked the regions of the country equipped with gas filling stations to purchase equipment using gas.
A meeting was held in the Pavlovsky District of Kuban with the participation of Viktor Zubkov, Chairman of the Gazprom Board of Directors, and Veniamin Kondratyev, Governor of the region.
“I ask the heads of the regions, where there are gas filling stations, to purchase gas-powered vehicles with budget money. The purchase of vehicles running on gasoline is unprofitable. We need to work with business, talk about the benefits. gas-filling compressor stations, 18 of them are Gazprom. The average load exceeds 40%,» Zubkov said.
He also noted that for the Kuban, as a leading agricultural region, the transition to gas technology is especially relevant, since farmers incur a lot of costs for seeds, fertilizers, and gas motor fuel will help reduce costs.
«If Gazprom increases the number of filling stations in the region, vehicles running on such fuel should also increase. This is a bilateral responsibility. For our part, since 2019 we have introduced a ban on the purchase of vehicles using other fuels in favor of natural gas vehicles» , — said Kondratiev.
