Diesel
Equivalent Gallon (DEG)
A
diesel equivalent gallon (DEG) is the volume of natural gas
it takes to equal the energy content of one gallon of diesel
fuel. Since natural gas is not a liquid, its volume is measured
in cubic feet, rather than gallons. Therefore, the DEG is
a way of comparing equivalent volumes of fuel based on their
energy content in British Thermal Units (Btu).
