Barely 2% of LPG Output Used in Transportation Sector

After gasoline was rationed last November and the price of non-subsidized fuel doubled, some motorists turned to using other types of fuels for their cars such as compressed natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas. They converted their car engines to CNG hybrid or to LPG.
Those who chose CNG have no problem buying the fuel but those who opted for LPG face problems including shortage of the fuel and lack of official and authorized stations, Fars News Agency reported.
While LPG is preferred for car engines, the Oil Ministry has promoted the use of only CNG and has plans to convert 1.4 million public vehicles to CNG hybrids free of charge.
