In most cases pollutants such as sulfur and mercury are stripped out after the fuel gas has been synthesized.
Uswitch calculated figures for the BBC showing the difference between the average standard plans (payment on receipt) and the average online price among suppliers in the UK for dual-fuel gas and electricity bills.
However, once built, these plants do not require fuel, although they will be tied to natural gas fuel costs as gas plants are generally used to buffer the intermittency of wind production, not included in this discussion.
Other creative opportunities being explored include natural gas pumps (hooked up to the home) to fuel natural gas vehicles, and light duty vehicles relying on fuel cells (which manufacturers hope to begin building by 2015).
But proponents say fuel cells require less of that fuel than gas-fired turbines and the like.
Consumer website uSwitch recommends that anyone paying for gas and electricity separately moves to a dual fuel account - gas and electricity from the same provider.
The bill would allow for the early payment of the winter fuel allowance to people whose homes are not connected to the mains gas grid and whose principal source of fuel is home fuel oil, liquid petroleum gas or propane gas.
Fuel cells convert hydrogen, natural gas or other fuel into electricity through an electrochemical process.

What does a dirty-fuel player like Consol want with a clean-burning fuel like natural gas?
The use of gas fuel, combined with the planned deregulation of power generation, should eventually cut electricity costs.
The relative fuel costs of gas-sippers and plugins would hit parity long before the whole country adopts them.
All major unions are protesting against government moves to open retail, insurance and aviation sectors to foreign investment and increase prices of subsidised fuel and cooking gas.
Methane(CH4) is both a fossil fuel(natural gas) AND a biofuel(biogas).
Methane is both a fossil fuel(natural gas) and a biofuel(biomethane).
In the 1970s and 1980s the federal government poured billions of dollars into the Synthetic Fuels Corporation to develop liquid and gas fuel from coal, and into the fast-breeder nuclear reactor.
People are using credit and debit cards in more and more everyday situations, from meals purchased at fast-food restaurants and fuel purchased at gas stations to movies, groceries, sundries, highway tolls and clothing.
Instead, it was established in response to the Saudi oil embargo in the fall of 1973 (to punish us for our support of Israel in the Yom Kippur War), an embargo that was blamed for fuel shortages and gas lines.
With the share of natural gas used to fuel power plants expected to keep rising, gas producers are saying that between 29, 000 and 62, 000 miles of new pipeline is needed over the next 25 years.
Households with oil-fired central heating, and those using solid fuel or liquid petroleum gas to heat their homes, are much more likely to be in fuel poverty than "on-grid" households.
By replacing expensive fuel oil with inexpensive gas, OsComp claims it can provide customers with a payback in the form of fuel-cost savings in a few months.

And again, the potential for natural gas as a transportation fuel, and the revolution in natural-gas production, undermine the economics of renewable motor fuels.
WSJ: The Experts: What Renewable Energy Source Has the Most Promise?
While natural gas is a fossil fuel that emits carbon dioxide, tapping into the gas hydrates assessed in the study is not expected to affect global warming, said Brenda Pierce, coordinator for the USGS Energy Resources Program.
The proposals would also enable the gas distribution companies to connect around 80, 000 "poor fuel households" to the gas network for the first time, and pay for carbon monoxide awareness programmes.
If sales trends follow those set during the 2008 gas price crisis, then automakers will likely see a decrease in demand for fuel-efficient models once gas prices return to normal.
In Yerevan, Armenia, where I was last May, I noticed buses and lorries resplendent with rusty-looking cylinders of gas as their fuel supply, which is more cheaply obtained than liquid fuels, but I emphasise that it is petroleum gas (mainly propane and butane) that is used there and not biogas.
