Dangote Cement takes delivery of hundreds of CNG trucks, announces plans to convert 7,000 diesel trucks by end of 2026.

Currently, Dangote Group has 3,100 mono-fuel CNG trucks in its fleet, from 1,500 as of last October.


Last October, it announced it has invest $280m in CNG technology, other infrastructures to Tinubu’s CNG initiative.

Dangote Cement PLC (D) has announced plans to convert its fleet of over 7,000 trucks from Automotive Gas Oil (AGO), commonly known as diesel, to Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) by the end of 2026.


Arvind Pathak, the Group Managing Director of Dangote Cement PLC made this known on Tuesday May 27th 2025 at the 2025 edition of Dangote Cement’s Customers Awards & Gala Nite held in Lagos.

“In line with D’s commitment to sustainability and the country’s clean fuel policy, we are transitioning our fleet of over 7,000 trucks from AGO to CNG by the end of 2026. We are making significant investments in new CNG trucks and the necessary infrastructure to this transition.

He adds that : “Currently, 3,100 trucks are operational, and our initiatives in alternative fuel utilisation have gained global recognition, with Dangote Cement receiving a commendable score from CDP in climate change and water security.”

On Thursday May 29th 2025, the company also announced the arrival of hundreds of CNG-powered trucks, twenty-eight (28) of which were presented to its top dealers at the 2025 edition of Dangote Cement’s Customers Awards & Gala Nite.

Last October, the company announced it has invested over $280 million (₦460 billion) in Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) technology and other infrastructures to President Bola Tinubu’s Presidential CNG Initiative (PCNG-i).

At the time, Pathak stated that :

“This move marks a significant milestone in Dangote’s clean energy transition, to operate most of its fleet on CNG by mid-2026. As of October, the company has received its first batch of 1,500 mono-fuel CNG trucks while expecting an additional 1,600 CNG trucks, totalling 3,100 before the end of the year.”

“By mid-2026, Dangote Cement aims to operate a fleet predominantly powered by CNG. To facilitate this transformation, we are investing in expanding our CNG fueling infrastructure, ensuring that our growing fleet has reliable access to CNG as our fuel.’’

That's impressive.

This would massively cut costs of production and increase turnovers and total profits.


Way to go with CNG-FUELED haulage trucks.
