THE CONVERSION OPPORTUNITY

A Structured Path Toward Alternative Power Generation

Businesses operating diesel generators may consider CNG-powered generation as part of their energy strategy. The suitability of a conversion or replacement approach depends on the existing equipment, power requirements, fuel availability and site conditions.

NOVO Logistics supports an assessment-led process to help customers understand their available options and the requirements for a potential transition.

WHY CONSIDER CONVERSION?

Evaluate the Potential Benefits for Your Operation

Switching from diesel to CNG may help your business reduce fuel costs, improve operational efficiency and support cleaner energy use. Evaluate the potential benefits for your operation, including cost savings, vehicle performance, maintenance requirements and long-term sustainability.

Fuel Cost Evaluation

Assess potential fuel cost differences based on CNG pricing, diesel consumption, operating hours and supply availability.

Emissions Considerations

Evaluate the emissions characteristics of the proposed equipment and its operating environment.

Equipment Assessment

Review existing equipment, compatibility requirements and the technical pathway for conversion or replacement.

Operational Planning

Consider power demand, operating hours, fuel supply and maintenance requirements.

SOLUTION PATHWAYS

Selecting the Right Approach for Your Generator

The appropriate solution depends on your existing equipment, power requirements, operating environment and technical assessment findings.

01

Conversion Assessment

Evaluate whether an existing diesel generator is technically suitable for a conversion-related solution, subject to equipment condition, compatibility and applicable requirements.

Considerations

  • Existing generator model and capacity

  • Equipment condition

  • Load profile

  • Conversion compatibility

  • Site and fuel infrastructure

02

CNG Generator Replacement

Where conversion is unsuitable or a replacement is more appropriate, evaluate a CNG generator with the required capacity and operational characteristics.

Considerations

  • Required power capacity

  • Operating conditions

  • Fuel supply

  • Installation requirements

  • Maintenance and support
