By 2030, every second car sold is expected to be an EV... which also means that the other half will still have combustion engines. Cars and trucks with combustion engines therefore won't disappear overnight, despite the move towards decarbonisation and Net-zero.
CNG- and LNG-fueled vehicles are interesting alternatives for many applications; EV's aren't the most suitable option in all cases (e.g. for heavy road transport) or for all regions of the world.
When compared to petrol, CNG reduces CO-emissions by some 90%, and it's 30% more efficient, making it a good alternative for cars and light commercial vehicles in many regions and applications.
LNG, another natural gas derivative, is a viable alternative for Diesel fuel in road freight -it doesn't require heavy batteries which would decrease a truck's useful load, and offers a decrease in particulate as well as CO emissions while still giving trucks a good range between refueling stops.
It's more than likely that CNG and LNG, together with Hydrogen and electricity, will have their place in the decarbonisation mix for years to come.
Natural Gas vehicles will be in our future...
The future
iSystems' containerized, scalable and modular refueling stations for CNG, LNG or even a combination of both can be deployed at existing service station sites, or even in urban areas at locations with no existing fuel station infrastructure. With a LNG-to-CNG solution, a connection to the natural gas grid is no longer required and the neighborhood won't be disturbed by compressor noise.
iSystems designs and supplies standalone vehicle refueling point solutions for LNG and CNG, as well as LNG-to-CNG solutions, LNG storage, and CNG preparation and storage.
