Is CNG safe?
Many people have shared their concerns on the safety of CNG, but the PCNGi says on its website:
"It is absolutely safe as a gas. Being lighter than air, in case of a leak, it rises up and disperses into the atmosphere. This property precisely makes it a safe fuel. Furthermore, CNG has a narrow Flammability range, if CNG’s concentration in the air is less than 5% and more than 15%, the gas will not burn even in the presence of a spark."
How much is CNG in Nigera?
The PCNGi states that CNG is presently sold at N320 - N350 per comparable litre to PMS. It says:
"The operational cost of vehicles running on CNG, as compared to those running on other fuels, is comparatively low."
Driver buys CNG fuel
In a related story, a driver who drives a CNG-powered bus was seen at a filling station buying gas for the vehicle.
The man, seen at a NIPCO filling station, opted for CNG instead of the regular premium motor spirit.
Using CNG fuel could be cheaper, as a man also posted another video showing he filled a car cylinder for only N1900.
