It can be installed on any Car running on petrol. One can simply switch between CNG & petrol.

I'm told installation cost around 300k. Filing station popular in Benin & Nipco CNG station in Abuja.

Better than fuel @ 550.

Do u work there?

But 2k gas may only carry you for 150km on a normal 4 cylinder engine. So you'll need to regass.... Hence there's a urgent need for more pump stations

cyberguy72:

Nope. Any issue you need help with?

That's why CNG is better than LPG for your cars. CNG if it leaks disperses and the ignition temperature is extremely high. So probability for a fire in case of a leak is zero. However LPG gas (cooking gas) is another story. LPG doesn't disperse as it's denser and settles with a lower ignition temperature... In case of a leak LPG gas can auto ignite....

Nipco ibafo, Benin, Lagos Island, Mobil Ibadan tollgate, there's one at Okene, Ajaokuta, and Nipco Airport road Abuja

I added CNG/LPG fuel burning capabilities to my generator about a week ago.

My generator can now use 3 sorts of fuels.

Depends. If you need 10 units of CNG to run what you'll need 1vlitre if petrol to run nko? I don't have the details of how this works yet. So, I'll be careful before installing this in my car.

Is it cheaper to run CNG, instead of fuel?

I see.. thanks for the update. I think cost depends on location/state

Vivianat:

You seem to know so much about this CNG thing am impressed

Yes it is. A factory standard civic will use 6 litres for 100km on the highway= 500×6 = 3000
CNG will cost far less than 2000 naira.

Subsidy Removal: CNG at N130 Per Litre Cheaper Than Petrol—IPMAN

At a meeting on Monday night between the government and the labour unions, it was agreed that the adoption of CNG as an alternative fuel would be the best option, and it was agreed that the CNG conversion programme earlier planned in 2021 should be revived.

CNG, which is a gas mainly composed of methane and produces less emission, is the cleanest burning fuel operating today with less vehicle maintenance and longer engine life.

In the interview with NAN, Mr Okoronkwo said bringing CNG, which was cheaper than even firewood, as an alternative energy, would create relief for the government and its citizens.

“We have also discovered that bringing an alternative that is cheaper than even firewood which is CNG, will not only create relief for the government and its citizens but it is environmentally friendly.

In the Niger Delta region, you see billions of tonnes of gas flare being wasted daily, these are huge amounts that should be accruing to our GDP, but we are wasting it because there is no market for it.

“So, we are asking the government to create the market. How do you create the market?

“What Egypt and India did was to give soft loans to be paid back within stipulated periods; from there, you can get vehicles to use gas instead of fuel,” he said.

“There’s a franchise for the bottling of CNG so that an average woman in the kitchen can use it,’’ he added, noting that the introduction of CNG would cushion the effect occasioned by the high price of fuel currently as a litre of CNG would not cost more than N130.

He advised that repairing the local refineries as well would reduce the impact of the removal as it would eliminate the cost of importation and exportation.

It is way cheaper to run CNG and LPG than petrol
