Natural Gas Trucks and Buses - Medium and Heavy Duty Natural Gas Trucks and Buses, Natural Gas Supply, Refueling Infrastructure, CNG, and LNG: Global Market Analysis and Forecasts
NEW YORK, Jan. 2, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:
Two main issues are driving the increased usage of natural gas as a fuel for trucks and buses: the lower cost of natural gas and the lower emissions of natural gas engines. The compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG) used in trucks and buses are priced well below diesel in most countries, which means fleets can benefit from a total cost of ownership that is lower than that for comparable diesel vehicles. On the emissions side, the reduced carbon monoxide and particulate matter is attractive to fleets and regulatory agencies for vehicles operating in congested cities.
Demand for natural gas trucks and buses remains uneven on a regional basis, though North America and Asia Pacific stand out as regions with strong growth. In North America, where natural gas costs remain low, the growth of the vehicle market has gotten ahead of the refueling station development. In Asia Pacific, China and developing markets are looking to natural gas to help solve environmental woes in large cities. Navigant Research forecasts that the total number of natural gas vehicles (NGVs) on the road across the world will reach nearly 1.9 million trucks and a similar 1.8 million buses by 2022.
This Navigant Research report analyzes the global market for trucks and buses that are in the medium duty (10,000 to 26,000 pounds) and heavy duty (26,000 pounds or more) gross vehicle weight classes. The study provides an analysis of related market issues and drivers, including refueling availability, competing alternative drive technology, total cost of ownership, vehicle availability, and government influence. Global market forecasts for vehicle sales, vehicles on the ground, and fuel used are broken out by segment, fuel type, and region and extend through 2022. The report also examines the key technologies related to natural gas storage on vehicles, as well as the competitive landscape.
Key Questions Addressed:
• Where are the largest markets for natural gas trucks and buses?
• Which vehicle segment – medium or heavy duty – is more likely to experience higher sales growth?
• How big a role do government emissions restrictions and purchase incentives play in the natural gas truck and bus market?
• What types of compressed natural gas (CNG) cylinders are used in natural gas trucks?
• What will be the penetration rate of liquefied natural gas (LNG) trucks?
• How many natural gas refueling stations are available and how many will provide LNG?
• How much natural gas will be used by the truck and bus market?
