Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG)
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is natural gas that has been cooled to a liquid state, making it easier to store and transport. This process reduces its volume by about 600 times, allowing for efficient shipping in specialized tankers. LNG is primarily composed of methane and is used as a cleaner alternative to other fossil fuels.
Once it reaches its destination, LNG can be regasified and distributed through pipelines for use in electricity generation, heating, and cooking. The use of LNG helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions compared to coal and oil, contributing to a more sustainable energy future.
