Abstract

Overview

Introduction

Despite an increased focus on alternative road fuels across Europe, in all but one or two countries, the number of vehicles fuelled by compressed natural gas (CNG) is minimal. Industry stakeholders need to be aware of the varying popularity of CNG in member states and of the reasons for it.

Scope

• A review of the different levels of NGVs' penetration into the European car parc and CNG' s presence within the refuelling network
• An assessment of the support for CNG at a political level and from the automotive manufacturing industry
• Insight into the reasons why CNG vehicles have been more popular in markets outside of Europe, including Argentina, Brazil and Pakistan
• A comparison of the usage of competing alternative fuels such as biofuels and autogas and reasons behind success

Report Highlights

In Europe, NGVs have made the biggest impact in Italy, with the country' s 410,000 NGVs making up over 1% of the car parc. The key driver of the uptake of CNG vehicles in Italy has been grants for the purchase of NGVs and conversions kits.

The use of NGVs in Europe is dwarfed by markets such as Argentina, Brazil and Pakistan. The use of CNG in Brazil and Argentina is aided by favourable price differential between gasoline and CNG and a strong distribution infrastructure.

Across Europe CNG has been eclipsed by other alternative road fuels. Autogas has proven to be more popular for technical reasons, whilst biofuels have benefited from governmental support and superior adaptability to gasoline and diesel engines

Reasons to Purchase

• Compare the presence of CNG across European by understanding the number of registered NGVs and the number of CNG filling stations
• Uncover the reasons why NGVs have achieved a low penetration rate into the European car parc compared to some South American and Asian countries
• Understand the factors behind the relative success of LPG and biofuels as alternative fuels

  • SUMMARY
• ANALYSIS
  • Australian States continue to exhibit amongst the world' s highest levels of customer switching and churn
    • South Australia and Victoria lead the way in customer switching in Australia
    • Globally South Australia and Victoria have comparable switching rates to highly competitive markets such as the UK
    • Switching and churn rates have been shaped by markedly different market conditions across the competitive States
      • Rising regulated retail prices
      • Dual fuel offerings
      • Aggressive new entrants
    • Wholesale prices are expected to have a major influence on near-term acquisition strategies
  • Driving customer switching - results from an Australian household customer survey
    • Customers want lower prices and other financial incentives, but convenience of dual fuel also key
    • Retailer representatives are core to facilitating switching
    • But with one quarter of switchers considering switching again, having won the customer the focus needs to turn to retention
    • Convincing non-switchers increasingly means reducing the inconvenience of switching supplier
    • Green energy and customer service levels more influential for non-switchers, but price still key
    • In targeting customers in the future, telemarketing is, and will remain, unpopular
  • Expectations for retail competition in Queensland
    • Full retail competition in Queensland commencing on 1 July
    • Consumers keen to seek out a cheaper deal
    • But high wholesale prices will hinder new entrants' discounting
• ACTIONS
  • Driving customer acquisition
    • Dual fuel offers are the most attractive non-financial inducement to switch
    • Door-to-door by far the most effective method and forecast to continue to be so
    • Inconvenience as a key factor behind non-switching
    • Green energy at no extra cost a key factor for non-switchers
  • Penetrating the newly opened Queensland market
    • South-east Queensland expected to see most intense competition, but stifled by wholesale prices
