Pi-CNG Executive Chairman Ismaeel Ahmed locked in a powerhouse MoU with China’s You Jie Te Environment Technology Ltd (YJT) after touring factories in Chengdu/Hangzhou – greenlighting local manufacturing of CNG dispensers, refuelling stations, EV chargers, and IoT-smart monitoring to slash Nigeria’s petrol import bills (N1.6T yearly) and ignite the Presidential CNG Initiative’s 1M+ vehicle conversion target by 2027.
YJT’s real-time tech fuses with Pi-CNG’s NGVMS for nationwide oversight on station ops, compliance, and econ metrics – think predictive maintenance cutting downtime 40%, boosting transparency amid subsidy removal pains. They also scoped Sichuan Witent’s CNG kit lines for Naija assembly plants, targeting 200,000+ conversions in 2026 alone to save drivers N5M/km vs. PMS.
Ahmed hails it as a triple-win: 10,000+ direct jobs (assembly, tech, ops), skills for local engineers, reliable clean fuel curbing emissions 70% and gridlock – Tinubu’s Renewed Hope in action as China (world’s top CNG adopter, 12M vehicles) transfers playbook to Africa’s gas giant holding 200Tcf reserves.
