The Action is part of the GAINN-IT Global Project for the deployment of a network of alternative fuels in Italy. It aims to contribute to the implementation of the AFI Directive and the related Italian National Policy Framework to ensure a sustainable and efficient multi-modal transport system in the long run, with a focus on innovative Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) solutions.

The Action includes the deployment of a network of 4 Liquefied-Compressed Natural Gas (L-CNG) filling stations in Italy, supported by ISO-containers, with a multimodal LNG terminal in Oristano and a LNG bunker with a capacity of 7,500 m3, to be used to feed local storage facilities or to supply LNG to ships.

GAINN4MID will be implemented along the Scandinavian-Mediterranean, Baltic-Adriatic and Mediterranean Core Network corridors.
