IVECO’s gas solution comes in:
Liquefied natural gas (LNG) which is gas the same as what you have in your home that has been super-cooled to -162c and cryogenically stored in liquid form. As LNG is a liquid, the energy density is greater than compressed natural gas so more fuel can be stored on board making liquified natural gas well-suited for trucks travelling longer distances.
Compressed natural gas (CNG) is a version of natural gas that is used in homes around the country, but has been tailor-made for vehicles by compressing, and then dispensed at 200 bars. CNG is the cheapest and cleanest fossil-based natural gas fuel, due to its low processing, electricity, and transportation costs.
Bio-CNG which is compressed Biomethane which differs from fossil-derived CNG/LNG as it is emitted from the decomposition of food and animal waste, collected in an anaerobic digester and then injected into the grid. By using (Bio)methane to power a gas vehicle the harmful effects of waste gases are significantly reduced, as only carbon dioxide and water remains after combustion.
