The Shell Gas drive for alternative fuels 
Alternative fuels, especially for cars, are a global issue. Go to almost any city in the world and before too long you will realise that we all share a common problem - exhaust fumes from petrol and diesel engines have created smogs and reduced the quality of the air we breathe. Alternative fuels for cars have become an essential part of everyday life.
Over recent years, authorities in many countries have taken action to curb the amounts of harmful exhaust emissions released in cities. In some Italian cities where alternative fuels are not widely used, drivers may only use their vehicles on alternate days. As for Japan, there is a ban on the use of vehicles which have not met stringent emissions tests. A practical alternative to these fuels for cars has to be found. It seems likely that restrictive measures will be used more widely in the future and that drivers will need to become more aware of what they can do to stay on the road.
Global acceptance of alternative fuels is the cleaner way ahead, so welcome Shell Gas Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG). LPG, the most versatile of the alternative fuels, has been in use commercially for over 60 years and has an impressive safety record. First choice among alternative fuels, LPG also has the lowest life cycle greenhouse gas emissions of all commercial fuels and LPG engines emit fewer of the particulates which cause smog.
In addition, using LPG will prolong engine life and reduce the consumption of lubricating oils. Other alternative fuels for cars cannot match this performance.
Whether for private transport by car, public transport by bus or taxi, alternative fuels are here to stay. Only LPG from Shell Gas can offer a practical, cleaner alternative to petrol or diesel.
You can also enjoy the benefits of LPG for your business vehicles. Using LPG to power fork lift trucks or fuel your fleet can reduce costs as well as harmful emissions.
