The roadmap for vehicular ignition norm for new vehicles would be asfollows:CoverageEntire Country11 Major cities(Delhi/NCR,Mumbai, Kolkata,Chennai,Bangalore,Hyderabad,Ahmedabad,Pune, Surat,Kanpur & AgraCars, LCVs & HeavyDuty Diesel vehiclesBharat Stage II:1.4.2005Euro III Equivalent:1.4.2010BharatStageII:1.4.2003Euro III Equivalent:1.4.2005Euro IV Equivalent:1.4.20102/3 WheelersBharat StageII:1.4.2005Bharat Stage III:Preferably from1.4.2008 but not laterthan 1.4.201013. Lessons Learnt in Implementing CNG ProgramIGL in a short span of five years has installed 117 CNG stations in NCT ofDelhi in spite of various hurdles faced during implementation of theprogram. The following lessons have been learnt in implementing theCNG infrastructure development program:• Study of geographical spread of CNG vehicles movement is a must toanalyze the peak demand at individual CNG stations• Pipeline distribution infrastructure needs to be in place• Dedicated/adequate mobile cascade filling arrangement continuoussupply of gas to daughter stations.• Involvement of local government/transport authorities• Genuine cylinder kits and spare parts be used for CNG vehicles toavoid accidents• Suitable codes/standards are to be in placed for CNG kit fitment,testing etc.• Safety and performance standards should be in place, monitored andenforced14
• CNG stations need to be built in large open space to allow multivehicle and multi point dispensing• Development of CNG infrastructure needs to be in line with growth ofCNG vehicles.• Long term advance planning needs to be carried out• Development of CNG station is time and d capital consuming activity.14. ConclusionCompressed Natural Gas has been accepted as an alternative fuel bythe public at large. The stage is set for expanding the network to othercities. The success of CNG Expansion Program would depend on manyfactors. The key factors being the economy of CNG vis-à-vis otherconventional fuels, adherence to safety guidelines and the GovernmentSupport.Auto LPG is also launched on a large scale in the country. At the end ofthe day, it will be the quality of the fuel and economics which would beimportant parameters for the commercial success of auto fuel. Theemphasis would be on fuels with lowest emissions. However, CNG is herefor the time being till a better fuel is discovered offering better economicsto the users.15
