NIBC Investment Partners accelerates growth of Rolande

Rolande is front runner in clean fuel for trucks by providing (Bio-) LNG through its own network of LNG refueling stations in North-western Europe.

LNG, liquified (natural) gas, is a fuel that is particularly interesting for long-haul trucks and shipping.
