Benefits of Natural Gas Vehicles

• Cost Savings

  Natural Gas costs about 1/3 less than gasoline and about 50% less than diesel, resulting in sigificantly lower operating costs.

• Abundant Natural Gas Supply

  Using a gallon equivalent of Natural Gas means one less gallon of imported oil, which reduces dependency on foreign oil.  Natural Gas is an American fuel which equals American jobs.

• Cleaner Environment

  Natural Gas produces less exhaust emissions, and also less carbon, than any other fossil fuel.

• Natural Gas is Safe

  Natural Gas is lighter than air, so it dissipates when released. It doesn't leak into the ground. The ignition temperature is high - 1000 to 1100°F.  Comprehensive standards for fuel tank, vehicle and station design ensure safe operations.
  

Governments – federal, state, and local – are encouraging the use of NGVs by providing incentives and grants.
