CNG Safety
As with any fuel source, natural gas is flammable.
However, natural gas is widely considered a safe fuel as it's used on thousands of natural gas vehicles (NGV) worldwide.
​
Natural gas is lighter than air meaning any leaking gases vent into the atmosphere. Natural gas also has a much higher combustion temperature than diesel. It also requires a very specific air mix ratio (between 5 and 15%) to combust. All characteristics combined, natural gas will not combust in the case of an accident.
​
CNG storage cylinders are tested and certified by the Department of Transportation, Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA), and ISO Standardizations.
