Advantages natural gas
More and more municipalities are discovering the benefits of CNG. CNG has many benefits compared to Diesel. Not only ensures CNG reduced emissions and low operational costs but also a quieter sweep...
The maintenance advantage
- Intervals between oil changes for natural gas vehicles are dramatically extended
- Natural gas does not react to metals the way gasoline does, so pipes and mufflers last much longer.
The performance advantage
- Natural gas gives the same mileage as gasoline in a converted vehicle.
- Dedicated CNG engines are superior in performance to gasoline engines.
- Because CNG is already in a gaseous state, NGVs have superior starting and drivability, even under severe hot and cold weather conditions.
The environmentally clean advantage
- Compressed natural gas is the cleanest burning fuel operating today. This means less vehicle maintenance and longer engine life.
- CNG vehicles produce the fewest emissions of any motor fuel.
- Dedicated Natural Gas Vehicles (NGV) have little or no emissions during fueling.
- In gasoline vehicles, fueling emissions account for at least 50% of a vehicle's total hydrocarbon emissions.
- CNG produces significantly less pollutants than gasoline.
- Tailpipe emissions from gasoline operated cars release carbon dioxide, which contributes to global warming. This is greatly reduced with natural gas.
