The Petroleum Ministry of Egypt said that if the cars are run on natural gas as against petrol , there will be a cost saving to the extent of nearly 50%. The ministry sources revealed that the time needed to convert existing gasoline-powered vehicles to natural gas vehicles (NGVs) is from two to four hours depending on the car model.
The government recently brought out a report on the advantages of compressed natural gas (CNG). According to the report the new vehicle conversion system will help improve the car engine efficiency and increase the car horsepower capacity.
The report also gives the citizens tips for converting their cars to make it compatible with natural gas within the framework of implementing the State’s ambitious plan to expand the use of natural gas as a fuel for cars.
