About AFS
About AFS
 
The company was formed in late 1998, when interest in alternative fuels, especially LPG as a road fuel, was becoming more widespread in the UK.  For the previous four years Rob Priest, AFS Managing Director and Rob Carnell, AFS Operations manager, had enjoyed much success as a core part of the GTC Motorsport team, racing the formidable McLaren F1 GTR under the Gulf Oil banner, with numerous victories, including 1996 FIA GT championship winners and class win, 2nd overall at the prestigious Le Mans 24 Hour race in 1997.
 

The Managing Director, Rob Priest, has a wealth of experience within the alternative fuel industry dating back over 25 years.  From the early 1970's until his move to the UK in the late 1980's, Rob gained invaluable knowledge within the Australian LPG marketplace. He now heads the company's technical department on both LPG and in the development of Hydrogen Fuel Cells, another core area of interest within the alternative fuel industry, which AFS has been actively involved with since its formation.

 
AFS became an LPGA approved full member in June 1999 and were added to the Energy Saving Trust Powershift Register at about the same time. The company also gained ISO 9002 and 14001 accreditation for LPG sales, installation and servicing in March 2001
 
In 2001 AFS was awarded a prestigious DTI Smart award for the design and construction of a 5KW Alkaline Fuel Cell system. Other fully operational units have been demonstrated at numerous events and exhibitions including the Hanover Fuel Cell Fair, Grove Symposium, London and the Senate, Washington DC.

Save up to 40% on fuel costs

Rising tax on Petrol and a low tax on LPG means that LPG conversion is an economical choice for all motorists. With an overall lower cost for the fuel and an exemption to congestion charges, this all means handfuls of cash to spend on something more interesting.
