For carriers and freight forwarders, operating costs are critical. And that is where LNG shines in Serbia, as fuel costs for LNG vehicles are lower than those for diesel. This advantage is likely to continue as global LNG production capacity increases, making it easier and more efficient to use in Serbia. Heavy vehicle demand in Serbia for LNG is expected to increase, which will further reduce purchase costs and make LNG a competitive alternative to diesel.

The recent natural gas import agreements reached between Serbia and the Russian company Gazprom could accelerate the implementation of Liquefied Natural Gas as a transport fuel, making possible the implementation of a network of LNG refueling stations in Serbia

Likewise, the projects for natural gas liquefaction and regasification plants that are developed in the Balkans and the Adriatic Sea could favor the growth of the network of LNG service stations in the Balkans.
