One big market that CGD entities can tap is the industrial market, where gas can substitute fuel oil
8But here the outlook is not so bright as of now: industrial consumption of CGD supplied gas is not rising but falling in some geographical areas with established players
8Post IMO 2020, the price of fuel oil is expected to fall, further queering the pitch for industrial sale of gas.
8Gas prices are currently low but offtake of gas has not taken off in this segment because competing fuels are also well priced.
8For the use of gas to proliferate in the industrial segment, it has to be done through administrative orders, as has been done in Morbi and the NCR region
8But, as one gas supplier said, that activity is more activist driven than a result of any coordinated action against environmental damage.

And if you believe that everyone will welcome piped natural gas (PNG), the answer is 'no'.
8PNG volumes do not necessarily rise all the time
8PNG is up against LPG, and the cost-economics are not all that simple
8Subsidized LPG is cheaper than PNG so there is no least cost advantage for PNG

There is a huge rush to wrestle CGD licences in India but the cost-economics continue to remain a little fuzzy.
8If petrol and diesel prices were to soften and CNG prices were to harden, then the economics of using a CNG vehicle will disappear.
8The website carries here a calculation to show how running a CNG vehicle still remains profitable but savings are narrower now and the payback period is higher.
8If the cost of queuing up for longer at CNG filling stations is taken into account, the savings will get further squeezed.
8There is also the looming threat of electric vehicles on the horizon, which will eventually wipe out the CNG business model.
8Then again, the introduction of BS-VI fuel and new tech internal combustion engines will bridge the environment advantage of a CNG fired vessel.
8And what if the government re-prioritizes the allocation of subsidized gas to fertilizers or power as was the case in the past?
