LNG is cheaper than diesel and has strong environmental benefits.
For decades, diesel has been the default option for vehicle fleets. But all that is changing. Now there are other, better choices on the market that give the same performance in terms of power, acceleration, and cruising speed, but with added financial and environmental benefits.
LNG is typically 10-25% cheaper than diesel7 giving lower running costs over medium to long distances and the lowest total cost of ownership compared to conventional fuels. It also has strong environmental benefits that improve air quality in cities. LNG-powered trucks have comparable performance to diesel vehicles in terms of power, acceleration and cruising speed, but can cut CO2 by between 10% and 20%8, dependent upon duty cycle and vehicle type. LNG is not just for land-based vehicles but, with the growth of emission control areas (ECAs), LNG is also becoming an increasingly popular marine fuel9. It is a proven energy source, which is affordable, performs well and offers 24% more energy output per tonne than heavy fuel oil. It is also reassuring to know that the technology used for LNG vehicles is mature and safe. And with governments increasingly turning to domestic inland waterways to boost transport efficiency, LNG is considered one of the most promising alternative fuels in the transition to clean transport in shipping10.
