Summary

The waste cold from the LNG imports of just 7 EU countries in 2014 could have supported the cooling demand for 210,000 refrigerated vehicles, around a fifth of the entire EU fleet.1 The IEA expects LNG imports into Europe to increase to 90bcm (69mt) by 20202, which could in principle support a fleet of more than 550,000 liquid air TRUs, well over half the current EU fleet. By extension a projected global LNG trade of 500mtpa in 2025 could support almost 4 million TRUs – about the size of current worldwide fleet.
