Indraprastha Gas Ltd of Delhi may possibly be the one to usher Indian truckers into the gas age, a move that will benefit air quality in the NCR (national capital region) and subsequently expand to other cities. The country's major city gas network operator has partnered with CONCOR (Container Corporation of India) to assist the freight company in transitioning to cleaner-burning LNG (liquefied natural gas) for operating the fleet of load carriers hauling trailers and other commodities. To begin, the firms would collaborate to establish LNG infrastructure, including refueling heavy vehicles, at CONCOR's Dadri port in UP's Gautam Budh Nagar in Delhi's vicinity. This is projected to cut automobile emissions and pave the way for the development of a green logistics industry. The agreement calls for the replacement of current diesel-fired engines at several CONCOR terminals with LNG-fired engines, a plan that the business first proposed to ICT in 2019. The discussions had centered on revamping the fleet of heavy-duty trailers that transport containers between Delhi's Tughlaqabad inland port and the industrial belt that stretches all the way up to Rewari in Haryana. Some novel finance strategies were also proposed, but nothing came of it. In contrast, the IGL-CONCOR collaboration envisions LNG transit in railway rakes from import terminals near sea ports, such as Dahej in Gujarat, to consumption centers, with the goal of increasing access in the hinterland. By creating the required LNG infrastructure, we aim to set new benchmarks for eco-friendly transportation in the industry,? an IGL statement on Tuesday quoted company MD K K Chatiwal as saying. The partnership with IGL for LNG truck refuelling is a testament to our commitment to a greener future,? the statement quoted CONCOR MD Sanjay Swarup as saying. LNG (liquefied natural gas) is heavier than CNG (compressed natural gas) and is imported by ship. LNG is utilized in transportation because engines powered by the fuel have more pulling power and range than CNG, which is used in three-wheelers. According to a 2015 Morgan Stanley analysis, natural gas vehicles were displacing 1.5 million barrels of oil per day globally. By 2021, that figure may double ? or perhaps increase by 5.6 million barrels per day, the equivalent of China's oil imports in 2015.
