specifies LNG refuelling nozzles and receptacles constructed entirely of new and unused parts and
materials for road vehicles powered by LNG, and which is referenced in this document.
In addition to interoperability aspects, the following aspects are relevant for applying this document in
Europe:
— Fuel quality: The quality of LNG for use as automotive fuel is covered in EN 16723-2:2017, that
specifies the requirements and test methods for natural gas, biomethane and blends of both.
— Fuel labelling: The fuel label for LNG at dispensers is covered by EN 16942:2016, that lays down
harmonized identifiers for marketed liquid and gaseous fuels, and which has also been developed
to support Directive 2014/94/EU.
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria,
Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia,
