Alternative fuel sources

Scania's gas trucks use 9-litre or 13-litre Otto-cycle engines which burn methane as fuel. 

 

Biomethane is produced by optimising biogas to remove impurities like carbon dioxide, water vapor, and other trace gases. This results in a pure methane product that can be used as a high-efficiency fuel source. 

Compressed biomethane applications

The fuel tanks are available in packs of 4x80L, 4x95L, 4x118L bottles or 4x152L + 4x118L with a driving range up to 820 km. These fuel tanks also provide a better ground clearance than fuel tanks for liquefied gas.

Liquefied biomethane applications

The high energy density of liquefied gas (LNG) makes it perfect for regional and long haulage applications. The fuel tanks are available in sizes from 400 – 1100 litres providing a driving range up to 1800 km.
