Abstract

The United Nations considers that it is a defining moment in confronting climate change, recognizing it as a global issue of our time that has significant impacts not only on the environment but also on human beings. These impacts manifest in extreme weather events, such as the short-lived yet increasingly intense and frequent hurricanes, heat waves, freezes, and tropical storms. It is strongly attributed to human activities. Liquid fuel-powered vehicles are known as one of the main anthropogenic sources of greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs). In Egypt, road transport is considered the largest greenhouse gas contributor in the transport sector. So, Egypt is adopting natural gas vehicles as an environmentally cleaner option, as natural gas fuel is a low-carbon alternative to liquid fuel (gasoline or diesel). This study analyses the fleet growth of natural gas vehicles in Egypt, which is extending for 25 years.
