The use of natural gas as a fuel for heavy cargo transportation is gaining relevance due to environmental and economic factors, since it can mean savings of 50 percent, said the company that produces and distributes these vehicles, ELAM-FAW .
Ernesto del Blanco , general director of ELAM-FAW , said that the use of natural gas as fuel for cargo transportation is a forced transition towards new sources of sustainable energy.
“Different aspects cannot be left aside, especially those that have a direct impact on the environment. The benefits are many, if we side with a micro transport company or fleet company, they are reflected in less engine wear, therefore there are savings in maintenance and the vehicles remain on the road for longer”, he stated.
The manager said that in Mexico there are 96 service stations in 18 states and it is expected that by the end of 2023 this figure can increase by at least 13 percent.
"There are two types of use of natural gas: compressed (CNG) and liquefied (LNG), the main difference lies in the way they are stored and used. LNG is stored in liquid form at very low temperatures, which allows more energy storage in a smaller space. On the other hand, CNG is stored in a gaseous form at high pressure, which requires a larger storage space compared to LNG."
The company said natural gas prices tend to be more stable and less volatile than oil prices , providing greater predictability in fuel costs for heavy trucking fleet operators.
“ The use of gas as a fuel for the transport of heavy cargo has been supported by international organizations due to its environmental benefits, its contribution to energy diversification and its positive economic impact."
The executive added that the reduction of polluting emissions, the improvement of air quality, the security of supply and the development of infrastructure are some of the outstanding aspects, which is why Mexico should bet on this transition in fuels .
