The fuels' physical properties require larger storage volumes than liquid fuels, posing unique environmental and safety problems. Gaseous fuels can allow increased efficiency of spark-ignition Otto Cycle internal combustion engines during warmup at the expense of reduced specific power output. Heat methanol allows increased fuel efficiency and specific power output and is easier to incorporate into a transportation vehicle.
Gaseous fuels are best suited to stationary combustion systems served by pipelines.
