Abstract

Egypt is now undertaking a programme aiming at converting mainly urban taxicabs into CNG. More than 15,000 vehicles converted into CNG, mostly in the last three years. However, this is still below the set targets. This paper tries to find ways to augment the current programme through revealing the needs of the various actors involved. Interviews and questionnaires were conducted with decision-makers and taxi drivers. Several policies are suggested and lessons transferable to other developing countries are extracted.
