Spanish companies Enagás, Renfe and Gas Natural Fenosa are collaborating with Institut Cerdà, ARMF and Bureau Veritas on the first pilot test for trains powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG). The test will involve an LNG-powered locomotive travelling from the Feve diesel train depot to Figaredo, in Asturias. This is a very important step forward as it shows that we can move away from fossil fuels towards renewable energy sources such as solar power or wind power.

The test will involve an LNG-powered locomotive travelling from the Feve diesel train depot to Figaredo, in Asturias. One of two paired diesel locomotives will be replaced by a natural gas-powered engine, allowing the diesel and gas engines to be compared.
