Indian natural gas supplier Aavantika Gas Limited (AGL) plans to add six compressed natural gas (CNG) filling stations to the 14 already operational in Madhya Pradesh, a state in central India, reports the Economic Times.
Responding to increased demand, AGL will build four CNG stations in Indore, the state¡¯s largest city, and two in the northern city of Gwalior. A CNG mother station will reportedly also be built in Ujjain, to Indore¡¯s west. The increased availability of CNG in these cities is expected to reduce transport-generated pollution.
AGL was established as a joint venture company by Gas Authority of India Limited (GAIL) and Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) in 2005.
