DOE, with Atlas Copco Philippines, Holds CNG Seminar
Manila, Philippines, June 19, 2009 --(PR.com)-- The Philippine Department of Energy (DOE), in cooperation with Atlas Copco Philippines, recently held the CNG Refueling Station Technology Seminar last May 21, 2009, at the DOE Audio-Visual Room, Fort Bonifacio, Taguig City.
The 63 participants who attended the seminar were from the following sectors: transportion, fuel, power, government, and the academe.
Direct education
In line with the government's Natural Gas Vehicle Program for Public Transport (NGVPPT), this whole-day technical symposium was aimed to educate the different industry stakeholders on the many technological, and even some of the economic advantages of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG).
Ankur Arora, Intermech New Zealand’s Sales & Proposal Engineer, was invited to share his expertise and experience on CNG technology. Ankur highlighted his vast experiences in Thailand, Indonesia, Pakistan, Iran, Australia and Africa.
He said, "Although the country’s CNG network is still in its infant stage, I believe with proper education and guidance, the Philippines could match and even surpass the other countries' utilization of CNG. Plus, the country has a ready supply of CNG waiting to be tapped and maximized."
Ms. Evelyn Reyes, OIC-Director for the DOE’s Energy Utilization Management Board, said, “The huge turnout is a testament on how vital the industry players see CNG in the near future. We hope the technical knowledge the participants gained from this seminar will enlighten them on the benefits of CNG.”
Hector Melencio, Atlas Copco Marketing Specialist, added “We thank Elma Karunungan and Beth Capid of the Alternative Fuels and Energy Technology Division for helping make this seminar happen. We’re also very grateful to the DOE for inviting bus operators and manufacturers to this forum. Once a proper supply avenue has been established by organizations like Callandra LCNG Fuels Corp, we believe that the bus operators will be the prime movers in maximizing CNG.”
