Benefits of CNG - Koipdd67 - 03-07-2022
Low operational cost:
The operational cost of vehicles running on CNG, as compared to those running on other fuels, is significantly low. At the prevailing price of fuel in Delhi, Operational cost of CNG vehicles is 66% lower than petrol and 28% lower than diesel.It matters how the electricity is made
Broadly speaking, most electric cars sold today tend to produce significantly fewer planet-warming emissions than most cars fueled with gasoline. But a lot depends on how much coal is being burned to charge up those plug-in vehicles. And electric grids still need to get much, much cleaner before electric vehicles are truly emissions free.
One way to compare the climate impacts of different vehicle models is with this interactive online tool by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, who tried to incorporate all the relevant factors: the emissions involved in manufacturing the cars and in producing gasoline and diesel fuel, how much gasoline conventional cars burn, and where the electricity to charge electric vehicles comes from.
Environmental Benefits
Natural gas vehicles can have an immediate and positive impact on the issues of air quality, U.S. energy security and public health. Here are some key benefits of using natural gas as a transportation fuel.
NGVs are Clean
of promoting LNG vehicles in Shenzhen road freight. Different from light-duty vehicle using diverse fuel (e.g. gasoline, diesel, CNG, and electric), heavy-duty vehicle uses diesel or LNG because the fuel’s energy density must be high enough to meet its power requirement. There are three main types of LNG heavy-duty vehicles in Shenzhen, namely, container tractors, engineering dump trucks, and engineering mixers.
LNG supply safety
LNG fueling stations
The number of LNG fueling stations is still not enough in Shenzhen. Besides, the layout of LNG fueling stations is unreasonable. China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) Shenzhen Gas Co., Ltd is one of the largest automotive LNG suppliers. By the end of 2015, it had built 17 LNG fueling stations distributed at 6 districts, such as Nanshan, Baoan, Longgang, Yantian, Guangming, and Longhua . At present, nine of them have been put into use. Their clients include buses, coaches, container tractors, dump trucks, and engineering mixers. It just takes 3?min to refill a gas tank of LNG vehicle, which is shorter than refilling diesel to a diesel vehicle due to the high pressure of gas dispenser.
