Natural gas is the cleanest burning fuel available for the transportation industry. Natural gas vehicles emit up to 95% less pollution than gasoline or diesel vehicles. Compared to gasoline or diesel, natural gas significantly reduces the emissions of hydrocarbons (HC), nitrogen oxides (NOx) and lowers amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2). Generally, more carbons attached to the molecule causes more emissions. It is costs on average 1/3 less than conventional gasoline at the pump. The consumption of natural gas increases our energy independence from foreign supplies and greatly contributes to our country’s energy security. The United States has a large domestic supply with a growing infrastructure. Today there are over 1200 natural gas fueling locations.

In the case of a natural gas leak, it will dissipate quickly, as opposed to liquid fuels, which pool on the ground or pollute our waters. The adaptability with current engine systems make compressed natural gas retrofits a great alternative fuel option. Maintenance costs of natural gas vehicles can be significantly reduced due to less oil changes and less engine wear because there are fewer particulate materials produced during the combustion cycle.
