2. How is CNG distributed once it has been produced locally?
Once produced, CNG is injected into the natural gas transmission network, more specifically into LNG tankers that transport the CNG to consumption points such as buildings, industries and CNG refueling/distribution stations for recharging CNG vehicles.
The simplified diagram of biomethane injection possibilities on the French gas system shows gas exchanges between the transmission network, the distribution network and consumption zones (buildings, industries, CNG stations).
