The transportation industry has been converting to CNG systems due to the high demand from their customers, and to provide the planet with a sustainable alternative, to gasoline and diesel fuel. Converting to a CNG [compressed natural gas] fueling system has numerous benefits such as fewer emissions that damage the Earth, reduced maintenance costs and a fueling system that can be installed by licensed and experienced technicians. When vehicles in the transportation industry convert to a natural gas fueling system they benefit their business and the environment with an alternative that can be installed affordably by a reputable and knowledgeable service.

The Benefits of CNG Systems

1. It's Better for the Environment

Converting to a compressed natural gas system provides the planet with the fewest harmful emissions. CNG is one of the cleanest burning fuels and produces significantly less greenhouse gases than gasoline.  Using natural gas a fuel source contributes to a reduced impact of global warming and provides a more sustainable solution for the environment.

2. Reduces Maintenance Costs

Due to CNG being such a clean burning fuel, a transportation fleet can significantly reduce their maintenance costs:

• Fleets can reduce their overall costs by up to 40%
• Intervals between servicing lengthens, and tune ups can potentially be extended for an additional 30, 000 to 50, 000 miles per vehicle.
• When fleets convert to compressed natural gas they can prolong the time in between oil changes for an additional 10, 000 to 25, 000 miles per vehicle.
• Natural gas does not react to metal in the same way as gasoline.  Pipes and mufflers last longer.
• CNG engines offer better or equal performance to gasoline engines.
• Compressed natural gas a slight efficiency over gasoline, with an octane rating of 130.
• CNG fueling systems are 15% to 50% less expensive than the cost of gasoline.
• Some states offer a 50% investment tax credit for each vehicle converting to a CNG fueling system.
• Federal tax deduction s is also available per vehicle that has been converted.

Companies that operate a fleet of buses or trucks will see significant savings every year by reducing their fuel costs, maintenance fees, and by being provided with tax breaks and deductibles. Converting to CNG is the most cost-effective option for large fleet companies that are seeing a demand for sustainable alternatives to gasoline and diesel fueling systems.

3. Reliable Systems & A Dependable Service
When converting to compressed natural gas systems, a company that has been trained by leading organizations such as Swagelok and BAF Technologies will have the training and experience to safely convert fueling systems to CNG. A company with a primary focus on safety and customer satisfaction is the key to a successful CNG conversion, to receive the eco-conscious and affordable solutions, to fuel system conversions.
