While I agree trucks are the most likely “first step” it won’t be “long-haul” units ! Most likely are urban/suburban delivery aps ! The weight penalty and power density issues will preclude NG in that ap unless desperation - or government stupididty - sets in! >PS
Well, obviously I agree (see post upthread). My position is more correctly that long-haul trucks will probably be the first "extra-urban" application to switch. It's a lot easier to install natgas facilities at interstate truck stops than in every existing service station.
"The weight penalty and power density issues will preclude NG in that ap unless desperation - or government stupididty - sets in!"
THIS I don't agree with. I think the cost differential is already causing movement to adoption (viz. "PapaBears" comments upthread).
