Nigeria is transitioning its railways from diesel to Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), aiming to cut fuel costs by 70% and slash emissions. Led by the NRC, the initiative includes CNG conversion centers, public awareness campaigns, and education partnerships. Enhanced freight routes and ongoing rail projects align with Nigeria’s Renewed Hope Agenda. This move positions the country as a leader in clean, cost-efficient rail transport in Africa.
