Evaluation of technical and economic parameters of natural gas delivery using compressed natural gas (CNG) technologies, phase 2 : Feasibility study : evaluation of technical and economic parameters of natural gas delivery using compressed natural gas (CNG) technologies, phase 2 : fuel delivery to a community

Phase 2 of the "Evaluation of Technical and Economic Parameters of Natural Gas Delivery Using Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Technologies" study considers the supply of natural gas to an off-grid community of multiple industrial/commercial consumers. For the purpose of the study, average total annual consumption by the community is given as 350,000 GJ. The travel distance is increased to a 150 km round trip. The study represents a scaled up model in relation to Phase 1 in that gas continues to be delivered by road transport from a single source to a single off-loading location; however, the addition of a local community distribution system delivers the fuel to a number of users with smaller loads.
