AB Vilkyškiu pienine signing a contract on connection to a gas distribution system

AB Vilkyškių pieninė has signed a contract on connection to a gas distribution system with AB Lietuvos dujos. Gas supply to the dairy farm is expected since Q4 2016. In late June, the National Commission for Energy Control and Prices has approved the project on investment into gas supply to Tauragė and authorised construction of a distribution pipeline to Tauragė. The distribution pipeline will run almost 6 km and connect the gas distribution station to AB Vilkyškių pieninė, situated in the town of Tauragė. According to Gintaras Bertašius, General Manager of Vilkyškių pieninė, “We believe that as we make this project happen, we help our business grow, and further, we contribute to the benefit of Tauragė town. What motivates us to expand right here, without considering moving away, are the new jobs created by our company and other businesses, opportunities to bring new investors to the region, and increasing appeal demonstrated by the industrial area in Tauragė”.
