La Poste opens its first biogas station in Bouloc

La Poste opens its first biogas fuelling station to supply its fleet and those of its transport partners with biogas. Located at Bouloc in the Occitanie region of France, this station is the first commissioned by La Poste in France. It is operated by GNVERT, ENGIE Solutions' gas mobility offering.

The latest generation station

Open since April 14, 2025, this station, initiated by La Poste, is located close to 2 major postal sites and benefits from 2 terminals/4 biogas fuelling lanes. The station is primarily designed to accommodate heavy goods vehicles and the professional fleets of La Poste and its transport partners; but it can also accommodate light vehicles or buses and coaches, and is open to the public on a self-service basis 24 hours a day.

A pioneer in the electrification of last-mile fleets, La Poste has set itself the goal of decarbonizing medium- and long-distance transport by 2022. A major player in French transport, with 3,500 trucks on the road every day to deliver letters and parcels, La Poste is working to significantly reduce its emissions from medium- and long-distance transport, and has made a strong commitment : 50% of the kilometers covered by La Poste in France will be done by low-carbon trucks by 2030.

To achieve this, La Poste has invested 400 million euros to convert its truck fleet to low-carbon energies and to support its 400 transport partners in their transition.

With the opening of its first biogas station, La Poste has taken a major step towards the deployment of low-carbon transport. By supporting energy suppliers in the deployment of refuelling stations, La Poste is positioning itself as a gas pedal of alternative energies in the transport sector.
