After gasoline and diesel, it is the third most popular fuel. It is used to power over four million vehicles. Compressed natural gas and liquefied natural gas are being used in many fleet applications and have a large pipeline distribution system. Hydrogen is used in a fuel cell to create electricity and expels water. Two major automobile manufacturers have introduced hydrogen powered cars. As a society we are moving towards having humans have less of an impact on our environment and the gaseous fuel are a big part of the movement.
