In 2011, FortisBC received regulatory approval to provide temporary refuelling services to Vedder Transport through an LNG fuelling station. This interim station will stay in service until the permanent facility is completed later in 2012. It will be Western Canada's first large-scale liquefied natural gas fuel station, helping reduce B.C.'s greenhouse gases by over 3,500 tonnes a year. Vedder Transport is able to safely and economically refuel their new fleet of 50 LNG-powered trucks on their own premises.
