UK Biogas Fuelling Stations
Biogas refuelling stations are playing a transformative role in cutting emissions across the UK’s transport and logistics sector. As fleets look for practical, affordable and immediate ways to decarbonise, bio-CNG and bio-LNG fuelling stations are becoming essential parts of the country’s low-carbon infrastructure.
Below, we explore how the network is growing, what’s driving demand and how Roadgas is leading the way with accessible biogas filling stations designed around fleet operators, drivers and real-world haulage needs.

Overview of Biogas Refuelling Stations in the UK
The UK’s network of biogas refuelling stations has expanded rapidly over the past decade as haulage operators move away from diesel to biomethane-powered trucks from manufacturers like Scania, Iveco and Volvo. Unlike other low-emission technologies still in early adoption, compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG) offer immediate carbon savings with no compromise to vehicle range, payload or operational efficiency.
Biogas stations today typically offer
- CNG fuelling for regional and urban routes
- LNG fuelling for longer-distance trunking
- Biomethane options for fleets targeting the highest emission reductions
Growth of the Biogas Refuelling Network in the UK
The demand for biogas fuel stations has grown sharply as fleets look to hit sustainability targets without disrupting operations. Biomethane’s appeal is simple ‐ it offers up to 84% CO₂ reduction compared with diesel, while delivering the same performance and reliability drivers expect.
Across the UK, we’re seeing
- More fleets introducing biomethane trucks
- A push for public-access stations to widen national coverage
- Regional clusters forming around logistics parks, ports and distribution hubs
- Increased interest from sustainability-focused retailers
Role of Biogas in the UK’s Transport Decarbonisation Strategy
Biogas plays a crucial role in bridging the gap between today and the zero-emission future set out in the UK Government’s decarbonisation strategy. Biomethane is ready now, offering
- Substantial CO₂ reductions
- Credible pathways to Net Zero
- A proven, reliable alternative for diesel
- Compatibility with heavy-duty operations
- Lower total cost of ownership compared with other alternative fuels
In short, biomethane is the UK’s most mature and scalable solution for cutting HGV emissions today and biogas filling stations are the infrastructure making this transition possible.
Refuelling Stations
Roadgas is rapidly expanding its nationwide network of bio-LNG refuelling stations. What sets Roadgas apart is the complete solution of gas supply security, national station access and truck hire.
Our stations are built around
- Frictionless fuelling using driver fobs
- Third-party access network expansion to support fleets
- Coming-soon pipeline visibility helping fleets plan rollouts with confidence
Regional Coverage and Station Accessibility
Coverage continues to expand, with clusters around
- Midlands logistics corridors
- Major distribution hubs
- Northern manufacturing routes
- Southern retail and port networks
Roadgas is closing the gaps competitors often overlook — focusing on driver-friendly placements, local high-demand routes and third party-access availability.
Government Targets and Emissions Goals
The UK Government is pushing harder than ever on
- Net Zero by 2050
- Cleaner HGVs by 2040
- Lower transport emissions across logistics and supply chains
- Accelerated adoption of alternative fuels
Biomethane is one of the few technologies that meets these goals today, without disruption to haulage operations. Bio-LNG stations are essential to achieving rapid decarbonisation.
Final Thoughts
The rise of bio-LNG fuelling stations across the UK marks a major shift in how fleets operate. Biomethane offers real, measurable CO₂ savings now — not in five or ten years — and Roadgas is leading the charge with a smarter, more accessible and more sustainable refuelling network.
