Because the use of natural gas for transportation requires compressing, liquefying, or conversion, it is important to determine the best use of natural gas as a transportation fuel.

By 2040, natural gas is expected to account for more than a quarter of global energy use, surpassing coal in the overall mix. Still, over time, global coal demand is expected to remain most prominent in Asia Pacific, primarily to support growing power-generation requirements. Transportation in general. Fuel efficiency.

Coal still supplies more power in the US than anything else, with natural gas next. However, building more coal and gas power plants to make miles for transport is counter-productive if the game plan is to reduce carbon output. Average fuel efficiency in the US is 22 miles per gallon (mpg). New cars in 2015 get 25 mpg.)

Cars and other LDVs will become more fuel-efficient through 2040, ,with the average fuel economy rising from 25 mpg to about 45 mpg and average fuel consumption dropping by half, to about 5 liters/100 km. The share of the world’s electricity generated by coal is expected to fall to about 30% in 2040 from approximately 40% in 2014.

It can be manufactured at low cost from a variety of resources, including stranded natural gas, coal and biomass. In the mid-late 1990s, AFT designed a DME fuel system for the DOE’s PNGV program (the 80 mpg car). DME is an ultra-clean burning diesel fuel replacement that does not produce any particulate (PM) emissions (black smoke).

This expands the need for controlling emissions beyond the transportation sector, the committee noted, and thus calls for a broader policy implementation.

Assuming no new policies, growth in energy-related CO 2 is driven by electricity and transportation fuel use. CO 2 emissions from the transportation sector are projected to remain at 33% of the total in 2035, but increase from 1,925 million metric tons in 2008 to 2,115 in 2035.

That’s because coal-fired and nuclear power plants that use steam to drive a turbine typically use water—vast amounts of water—to cool and condense the steam at the exhaust." At that rate of consumption and at an average of 20 MPG, the amount of water per electric gallon of gas is about 1.25

On the one hand, a shift to natural gas is promoted as climate mitigation because it has lower carbon per unit energy than coal or oil.

Sorry, but electrics and electric power plants are so efficient that CO2 emissions are less than gassers even when the electricity comes from coal - and a lot of electricity doesnt come from coal. Well, the cheapest source is from steam reformed fossil fuels, and that process produces CO2, especially when that fossil fuel is coal.
