Hyderabad is taking a significant step toward a cleaner and greener future with Bhagyanagar Gas Limited (BGL) achieving another milestone in its commitment to sustainable energy. The joint venture between GAIL (India) Ltd. and HPCL has inaugurated its second Mother Station at Hafeezpet, Hyderabad. This new facility is set to improve CNG accessibility, reduce pollution, and contribute to the city’s eco-friendly transportation goals.
Addressing the Growing Demand for CNG
As the demand for Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) continues to rise in Hyderabad, the new Mother Station at Hafeezpet plays a crucial role in making fuel availability more convenient for vehicle owners. Prior to this development, many CNG outlets relied on gas transported from Shamirpet, located 45 kilometers away. The long-distance transportation often resulted in delays and occasional supply shortages. With the addition of this new station, Hyderabad can now ensure a consistent and steady supply of CNG, minimizing disruptions and long wait times for consumers.
Inauguration Ceremony
The facility was officially inaugurated by esteemed industry leaders, including:
- Shri Sandeep Kumar Gupta, Chairman & Managing Director, GAIL (India) Ltd.
- Shri Amit Garg, Chairman, BGL & Marketing Director, HPCL
- Shri Dev Kanth Sinha, Chief General Manager, GAIL
- Shri Benny C Thomas, Chief General Manager, HPCL
- Shri Ram Mohan Rao Karnati, Managing Director, BGL
- Smt. Y. Danuta, Director Commercial, BGL
Their presence at the event highlighted the significance of this expansion and reinforced the commitment of BGL toward cleaner energy solutions.
Enhanced CNG Accessibility and Capacity
One of the key advantages of the Hafeezpet Mother Station is its high compression capacity of 50,000 kg per day. This capacity ensures that there are no supply shortages at any of the CNG stations across Hyderabad, making refueling easier and faster for both private and commercial vehicle owners. The increased availability of CNG will significantly reduce dependence on conventional fuels, leading to a more sustainable urban transport system.
A Step Towards Sustainability
Bhagyanagar Gas latest expansion aligns with its long-term vision of strengthening the city’s gas distribution network. The company is actively working on:
- Expanding the pipeline network to enhance the reach of clean energy.
- Introducing advanced refueling solutions for a seamless customer experience.
- Encouraging industries and businesses to adopt CNG as a viable alternative to conventional fuels.
By promoting the use of cleaner fuel, Bhagyanagar Gas is helping reduce the overall carbon footprint of Hyderabad. This shift towards natural gas will play a vital role in controlling air pollution, improving public health, and ensuring a more sustainable environment for future generations.
Economic and Social Impact
The establishment of the Hafeezpet Mother Station is not only a boost for Hyderabad’s energy infrastructure but also a catalyst for economic growth. The project has generated employment opportunities in various capacities, contributing to local livelihoods. Additionally, the steady supply of CNG benefits multiple sectors, including:
- Auto-rickshaw drivers and public transport operators by offering a cost-effective fuel alternative.
- Logistics and delivery services, enabling efficient and eco-friendly transportation.
- Industrial and commercial businesses, reducing operational costs by switching to cleaner energy sources.
With lower fuel expenses and reduced environmental impact, the adoption of CNG will significantly contribute to economic development while supporting sustainable urban planning.
Bhagyanagar Gas Road Ahead
As Hyderabad moves toward a cleaner and more energy-efficient future, BGL remains at the forefront of driving this transformation. The company’s efforts in expanding CNG infrastructure and promoting eco-friendly fuel alternatives are shaping a city that prioritizes environmental well-being.
The Hafeezpet Mother Station marks another achievement in this journey, reinforcing BGL’s mission to make Hyderabad a healthier and more sustainable place to live and drive. With ongoing advancements in clean energy, the future of transportation in the city is set to become greener and more efficient than ever before.
