Why Switch to CNG

Discover the advantages of natural gas vehicles for Nigerian fleets

Nigeria's CNG Advantage

Fuel Cost StabilityGreater predictability vs diesel volatility
Air Quality & CO₂Lower emissions for cleaner cities
Local Gas UtilizationDomestic energy security

Target: 1M NGVs by 2027RHNG aligns with the Presidential CNG Initiative (PCNGi) to accelerate Nigeria's transition to cleaner, more affordable transportation fuel.

Cost Savings

Lower Operating Costs

CNG delivers material savings on fuel expenses compared to diesel. Actual savings vary depending on route characteristics, load profiles, and operational patterns, but fleet operators consistently report lower total fuel costs.

85-90% lower NOx

Cleaner Emissions

20-30% less CO2, 85-90% lower NOx, and near-zero particulate matter for cleaner engine operation.

540°C ignition point

Enhanced Safety

Lighter than air, disperses quickly, higher ignition temperature (540°C vs 250°C for petrol).

$211B market size

Global Growth

Global CNG market valued at $211 billion in 2025, with 4,100+ billion cubic meters consumed worldwide.

Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)

The Natural Alternative to Fuel/Diesel

With more than 15 million natural gas vehicles across the globe, compressed natural gas is the future of alternative fuels. CNG, an alternative fuel comprised mostly of methane and compressed to less than 1% of its volume at standard atmospheric pressure, offers a wealth of benefits to the environment and your bottom line.

Compressed natural gas (CNG) and renewable bioCNG are cleaner, reliable and proven fuel choices for heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) and bus fleets. When it comes to CNG solutions, we can provide you with the right high pressure solutions that best suit your compressed natural gas needs.

Applications

High-voltage towers powering gas-driven electricity generation in Nigeria

Electricity Generation

Natural gas fuels highly efficient power plants, ensuring stable electricity grids and reducing emissions compared to traditional fossil fuels.

Quickest start-up time for power plants, ideal for grid stability.

Industrial facility utilizing natural gas for steel and fertilizer production processes

Industrial Processes

From manufacturing steel to producing fertilizers, natural gas provides essential heat, power, and raw materials for diverse industrial operations.

Burns cleaner than other fossil fuels, reducing industrial emissions.

Residential building using compressed natural gas for domestic energy needs

Residential & Commercial Use

Delivered directly to homes and businesses, natural gas offers a convenient and efficient energy source for these everyday needs.

Unmatched convenience and heating efficiency via direct gas lines

Hydrogen production plant using natural gas as feedstock for large-scale energy generation

Hydrogen Production

Natural gas is currently the most common and cost-effective feedstock for producing hydrogen on a large scale.

Most established and economical pathway for large-scale hydrogen production today.

Facts you should know about CNG

Gas reserves

Nigeria holds approximately 3% of the world's proven natural gas reserves (209.26 trillion cubic feet as of 2024), making it the largest gas reserve holder in Africa and the sixth-largest global LNG exporter.

Transportation Cost Savings

Vehicle owners save up to 60-70% on fuel costs by switching from petrol to CNG. CNG costs approximately ₦300 per liter equivalent compared to petrol at ₦1,000 per liter, meaning CNG vehicles cost about one-third to fuel.

Global use

Approximately 23 million CNG vehicles operate worldwide, with the global natural gas vehicle market growing rapidly and expected to reach significant milestones in the coming decade.
