A friend of mine just intruduced me to CNG (compressed Natural Gas) for my car and it saves you cost upto 70-80%.
pls if you have more info on these you can share, but for some of us that live in cites like lagos or busy areas, yu can save ur self the stress of spending too much on Jona fuel.
more veiws are welcome

Compressed natural gas (CNG) is a fossil fuel substitute for gasoline (petrol), Diesel fuel, or propane/LPG. Although its combustion does produce greenhouse gases, it is a more environmentally clean alternative to those fuels, and it is much safer than other fuels in the event of a spill (natural gas is lighter than air, and disperses quickly when released). CNG may also be mixed with biogas, produced from landfills or wastewater, which doesn't increase the concentration of carbon in the atmosphere.

CNG is made by compressing natural gas (which is mainly composed of methane [CH4]), to less than 1% of the volume it occupies at standard atmospheric pressure. It is stored and distributed in hard containers at a pressure of 200–248 bar (2900–3600 psi), usually in cylindrical or spherical shapes.

CNG is used in traditional gasoline internal combustion engine cars that have been converted into bi-fuel vehicles (gasoline/CNG). Natural gas vehicles are increasingly used in the Asia-Pacific region (especially Pakistan[1] and the Indian capital of Delhi, and other large cities like Ahmedabad, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chenai, etc. ), Latin America, Europe, and North America due to rising gasoline prices.[2] In response to high fuel prices and environmental concerns, CNG is starting to be used also in tuk-tuks and pickup trucks, transit and school buses, and trains.

The cost of this conversion is a barrier for CNG use as fuel and explains why public transportation vehicles are early adopters, as they can amortize more quickly the money invested in the new (and usually cheaper) fuel. In spite of these circumstances the number of vehicles in the world that use CNG has grown steadily at a 30 percent annual rate.

CNG's volumetric energy density is estimated to be 42% that of liquefied natural gas (because it is not liquefied), and 25% that of Diesel fuel.

My Company is one of the three company federal government gave the go ahead to install, distribute and sale CNG across Nigeria.

We are still in the process of installing all the facilities that will facilitate the distribution of the process across the nation.

A car using petrol can use CNG by just install a cylinder and doing some little installation that will not affect the performance of your car.

thank you.

What is the cost per litre for CNG?

And where are the sales points within Lagos? I am yet to see any auto-gas stations in Lagos Island.

Forget this idea fast CNG+CAR = Bomb speaking from a nigeria point of view forget the idea.

Down sides you need to carry a cylinder in the boot.

There are very few refill stations for cng

You will have to mess with your cars wiring

Accidents from the rear could result in........... Booooom

Nigeria is not ready for CNG

I see them on dangote trucks. Dangote has licence to import CNG its cheaper for him, he has fill up points located for his trucks.

So, those 3 Green cylinders on Dangote trucks are CNGs? I have been thinking about those cylinders, because i know it's not air for the brake system. Thanks for teaching me. Nairaland is really educative.

Why CNG?....auto manufacturers have toyed with that for a few seconds and have long been concetrating on gas/electric hybrids ....full electric.....or diesel. Stop looking in the rear view mirror!

To answer your question CNG is between 55 - 75 naira

Only few Gas Stations in Lagos offer CNG gas refilling.. The Good news is that the new Taxi App www.holycab.com is offering their drivers CNG conversion kits and will offer refill with Mobile Trucks.

Pls where can i buy compressed natural gas (cng) kits here in nigeria if there is anyone pls call my number 08065225693
