Features of the formation of the world market for compressed natural gas as motor fuel
Abstract
The article reflects various aspects of the transfer of motor transport from traditional fuel to compressed natural gas. A historical analysis of the world experience in the introduction of alternative fuels is given, which is of great interest to large motor transport enterprises, as well as to the population. It is emphasized that the world has accumulated extensive experience in evaluating the advantages and disadvantages of compressed gas as a new motor fuel. The results of a bibliometric analysis of the concept of “compressed natural gas as alternative fuels” (“compressed natural gas as an alternative fuel”) are presented; they demonstrate the realities and prospects of using natural gas as fuel for motor transport through thematic and geographical research landscapes. It is concluded that the success of the introduction of compressed natural gas directly depends on the scale of support from the state and private entrepreneurship. It is emphasized that at present the environmental component of the use of new motor fuels is becoming no less important than the economic benefit. Therefore, the transition to compressed natural gas for refueling personal, freight and public transport can be considered as an effective measure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve air quality.
