Carbon negative bio-LNG could gain traction in the U.S.
Cummins, Hexagon Agility and Natural Gas Vehicles for America weigh in on bio liquified natural gas which for now has been mostly at work in European trucks.
May 26, 2023

Internal combustion (IC) examples like the one above are few and far between though experts, including those at Cummins, see clean-running IC powertrains playing a critical role on the long path to zero emissions. Bio liquified natural gas (LNG) may get some additional use in the U.S. as fleets push to cut emissions but it's expected to be an uphill climb given a lack of infrastructure. Hexagon reports that it's bio LNG Cryoshelter shown on the left sparked interest in both U.S. and European fleets.
