Gov’t project to equip vehicles with dual fuel engines will start in September

The government will start implementing a national project to equip taxis and minibuses with dual fuel engines in September, Youm7 reports. Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly last month asked ministers to prepare a report on the proposed project, which aims to reduce vehicles’ gasoline consumption by supplementing it with natural gas. The project should be fully implemented by December 2022, with the cost of converting to the new model likely to be recovered within a three- to six-month period.
