What CNG is
CNG is compressed natural gas, mostly methane. It is stored at about 200 bar in a reinforced tank. It is not LPG. The fuel, the pressure, the pump and the tank are all different. A CNG car cannot use an LPG pump, and an LPG car cannot use a CNG pump.
Why CNG is hard to find
There are few CNG stations, and in several countries there are fewer each year. So every station on the map matters, and a wrong entry costs you more. If you miss one, the next may be a hundred kilometres away, or closed.
What the CNG count leaves out
The count on this page includes only stations tagged fuel:cng=yes in OpenStreetMap, in the cities Refuelia counts. Stations without the tag are not counted, so the real number is higher. A tag only means someone once saw a CNG pump there. It does not mean the pump works, has gas, or is still there.
What the map shows for each station
If a driver checked a station, you see that it is a driver report and when it was sent. If nobody has checked lately, the station says “Not checked recently”. The map does not show a green pin that nobody reported. With so few stations, it helps to know that nobody has checked one in six months.
Find CNG on the map
Filter the map to CNG. You then see only stations recorded as selling it. You do not need an account to use the map. Confirming a station takes one tap and is anonymous. It takes about as long as putting the nozzle back. With so few CNG stations, each report helps other drivers a lot.
