Utilization of CNG and LNG in Transportation

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

In recent years, we have been hearing about substitution of conventional fuels for alternative fuels more and more frequently. The talks are focused mainly on electric power and compressed natural gas, or else hybrid drive. Another possible alternative can be liquid natural gas (LNG), currently not so wide-spread even though its main advantage in comparison to CNG is the full-tank range. Of course, the biggest disadvantage for LNG today is an insufficient infrastructure of filling stations. Directive2014/94/EU of the European Parliament on introduction of alternative fuel infrastructure remembers this, as it sets indicative average necessary distance between LPG filling points to 400 km. By way of contrast, the distance for CNG is set to 150 km. In contradistinction to other countries, there are no LNG stations in the Czech Republic. There are about 75 LNG stations in the EU, mainly in the United Kingdom, Scandinavia, Benelux, or in Spain. Therefore, in terms of international transportation it is necessary to evaluate LNG utilization until the infrastructure is adequately developed. The presented article is on operational, technological and economical comparison of three different fuels used in bus transportation: diesel, CNG and LNG.
