About this tool

This Natural Gas (NG) cost calculator is designed to give an estimate of the savings (or in some cases costs) you could achieve by converting your fleet of vehicles to NG. It does require some basic informaton about the operation of your current fleet of diesel vehicles such as their average annual mileage and fuel consumption. For comparison purposes the tool assumes that a new fleet of diesel vehicles would perform as well as the old fleet.

Results have yet to be calculated, they will be displayed here upon calculation.

We have calculated the Well To Wheel (WTW) carbon saving based on the use of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG). The WTW saving of using Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) will be slightly less as it has higher energy costs associated with liquification and transportation. The saving associated with using biomethane includes cleaning and compressing.

Next Steps

If this tool has identified significant savings your next step will be to check whether suitable vehicles are available and where you can refuel your vehicles.
