Overview

AFP-CZ, spol. s r.o. is a Czech private company specialising in alternative natural gas supply (náhradní zásobování zemním plynem, NZZP) for high-pressure (VTL) and medium-pressure (STL) gas pipelines and industrial gas consumption facilities. The company was founded in 1997, initially focused on wholesale trade of propane-butane (LPG) for vehicle fuel and heating, and was equipped with storage technology. After a change of ownership and management, the company shifted its focus primarily to compressed natural gas for bus fuel. In 2001, its registered capital was increased to CZK 500,000 and, through international cooperation, the company name was changed to AFP - CZ, spol. s r.o., with the additional business designation "ALTERNATIVE FUELS PARTNER". In 2022 the company celebrated 25 years on the market. AFP-CZ provides temporary gas supply from mobile storage during network outages, offering services to gas organisations and natural gas consumers. The company has expanded into liquefied natural gas (LNG) with a new GOFA CSA 52.5 tanker equipped with FLOWCOM 3000 measurement and a small printer, capable of transporting up to 28,000 m³ of LNG (approximately 20 tonnes) at around -160°C. AFP-CZ positions itself as a partner for urgent gas supply, promising delivery within one day.

History

AFP-CZ, spol. s r.o. was founded in 1997 with a focus on wholesale trade of propane-butane for vehicle fuel and heating purposes, and was equipped with storage technology. After the company passed into the ownership of its current owners and managing directors, its orientation changed primarily to compressed natural gas for bus fuel. In 2001, the registered capital was increased to CZK 500,000 and, thanks to cooperation with foreign partners, the name was changed to AFP - CZ, spol. s r.o., with the additional business designation "ALTERNATIVE FUELS PARTNER". In 2022, the company celebrated 25 years on the market. The company has since expanded its services to include alternative natural gas supply (NZZP) for high-pressure (VTL) and medium-pressure (STL) gas pipelines and industrial gas consumption facilities, as well as liquefied natural gas (LNG) supply using a new GOFA CSA 52.5 tanker with FLOWCOM 3000 measurement.
