Seminar Presentation was held on Natural gas fuel in terms of vehicle energy for the transition transport energy; driving factor, compatibility considerations, and barriers in Ethiopia

04 Mar, 2026

As nations strive to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and achieve fuel independence, Ethiopia is actively transitioning its transport sector away from expensive, imported petroleum. This seminar analyzes the shift toward Natural Gas (NG) as a viable alternative fuel. The discussion covers the driving factors for this transition such as Ethiopia's ban on importing second-hand vehicles and conventional fuel freight buses and evaluates the availability of indigenous natural gas resources to meet national transport demands.

FMIE Seminar on Natural gas fuel in terms of vehicle energy for the transition transport energy; driving factor, compatibility considerations, and barriers in Ethiopia

Seminar Room 213

03 Apr, 2026

The Faculty of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at Bahir Dar Institute of Technology will host a seminar examining the transition of Ethiopia’s transport sector toward alternative energy sources, with particular emphasis on natural gas as a vehicle fuel. Presented by Destaw Belete, the seminar will provide insights into how energy transitions are being shaped by economic pressures, environmental concerns, and national policy directions. It will critically assess the suitability of natural gas in meeting vehicle energy demands, while also considering its environmental impact and practical feasibility. The discussion will further explore the broader implications of adopting natural gas, including system compatibility, infrastructure readiness, and the key limitations that may influence its successful integration into Ethiopia’s transportation system.
