Why CNG is preferred as a fuel over disel?

CNG (compressed natural gas) is preferred over diesel for several reasons, including its lower emissions, which contribute to improved air quality and reduced greenhouse gas output. CNG burns cleaner than diesel, producing fewer pollutants such as nitrogen oxides and particulate matter. Additionally, CNG is often more cost-effective due to lower fuel prices and tax incentives, making it an attractive option for transportation and commercial fleets. Its abundant availability and domestic production further enhance its appeal as a sustainable fuel choice.

CNG stands for compressed natural gas, which is a cleaner-burning alternative fuel for vehicles. Regular unleaded gasoline cannot be used as a substitute for CNG fuel, as they are different types of fuel with distinct combustion characteristics. Vehicles that run on CNG must be specifically designed to use this type of fuel.
