GUWAHATI: The Construction of Guwahati's first Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) filling gas station was completed recently. The station has been installed at Swagat Retail Outlets, Indian Oils offering Customers in Betkuchi. The testing started today, December 5.
This station is a joint venture of the Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL), Assam State Transport Corporation (ASTC), Assam Gas Company (AGC), and Purba Bharati Gas Private Limited (PBGPL).
IOCL initiated the construction of this CNG filling Station in September.
Soon Guwahati will get 200 AC-operated Electric city buses and 100 CNG-operated buses. These CNG-filling gas stations will be quite beneficial for facilitating eco-friendly buses. The inauguration of the gas station is expected anytime soon.
