However, widespread commercial use of electric drive on long-haul and heavy-duty routes is not yet feasible. This is where sustainable fuels play a crucial role as they could be pivotal in reducing the climate impact of transport emissions. Liquefied natural gas (LNG) and compressed natural gas (CNG) are considered alternative fuels.
