The Presidential Initiative on Compressed Natural Gas and Electric Vehicles — 100,000+ conversions, $2B+ invested, 99,700 jobs created. Delivering affordable, sustainable transportation for every Nigerian.
Who We Are
The Presidential Initiative on Compressed Natural Gas and Electric Vehicles (Pi-CNG & EV) is a strategic national programme under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's Renewed Hope Agenda, designed to fundamentally transform Nigeria's transportation energy mix.
Coordinated through the Office of the Special Adviser to the President on Policy & Coordination — Central Results Delivery Coordination Unit (CRDCU) — Pi-CNG is driving Nigeria towards cleaner, more affordable, and more energy-secure transportation for all citizens.
From expanding CNG conversion infrastructure to launching Nigeria's first government-backed electric bus fleet, we are building the foundations of a sustainable, lower-emission transport ecosystem.
What We Do
From vehicle conversion to EV deployment, refuelling infrastructure to technician training — Pi-CNG is building a complete clean energy transport ecosystem.
Converting petrol and diesel vehicles to CNG through the Conversion Incentive Programme (CIP) — active in 23 states with 337+ certified conversion centres nationwide.
40 electric buses launched, signalling Nigeria's diversification beyond CNG into full electric vehicle integration for mass transit.
62+ CNG refuelling stations now operational across 28 states, with a mandate to extend to all 36 states and the FCT.
The National Gas Vehicle Monitoring System provides real-time IoT-enabled oversight of all CNG-converted vehicles and refuelling infrastructure.
1,125 CNG auto-technicians trained across Nigeria's six geopolitical zones, creating 9,000 direct and 75,000 indirect jobs through capacity building.
The Renewed Hope Mass Transit Scheme deployed thousands of CNG buses and tricycles into public transport, providing immediate relief and sustained commercial operations.
Inception till Date
Pi-CNG & EV launched 40 electric buses, signalling Nigeria's decisive expansion into electric vehicle mass transit and full clean energy diversification.
The National Gas Vehicle Monitoring System pilot was launched, providing real-time IoT-enabled oversight of Nigeria's growing CNG vehicle and refuelling network.
Thousands of CNG-powered buses and tricycles deployed into Nigeria's public and commercial transport networks, reducing fuel costs for millions of Nigerians.
The Conversion Incentive Programme expanded to 23 states, driving a near 3,000% increase in Nigeria's vehicle conversion capacity with 337+ certified centres now operational.
Direct and indirect employment created across conversion centres, logistics, and the wider clean energy value chain — exceeding all initial projections.
Significant private sector investment secured for AutoCNG infrastructure and the broader CNG value chain, catalysing Nigeria's clean energy economy.
Live Data
Real numbers behind Nigeria's clean energy transport transformation — from the first kit deployed in 2023 to 100,000+ conversions today.
