Transformation and innovation
Systemic transformation with vison
The energy industry is changing from the ground up and at a rapid pace. With new solutions and technologies, we also want to make our contribution to making the energy system renewable and low-carbon. This transformation is affecting all areas of our company.
Tomorrow’s energy world cannot run on electricity alone: fuels will remain essential because they can be stored in large quantities, transported efficiently, and used in a wide variety of ways. Trading, transporting and storing natural gas therefore remains the core of VNG’s business activities today. In the medium and long term, the importance of natural gas will decrease.
We are therefore pressing ahead with the expansion of our biogas generation and with the ramp-up of hydrogen, that is to say with the transformation to renewable and low-carbon gases. This has implications for trading and sales, gas transport and storage.
