Zusammenfassung:	The present disclosure is directed to a system for running an engine. The system includes a first tank, a second tank, a pump, a vaporizer, and a heat source. The first tank stores liquid natural gas (LNG). The pump is in communication with the first tank and is configured to pump the LNG from the first tank. The vaporizer is in communication with the pump. The vaporizer is configured to receive the LNG from the first tank via the pump and convert the LNG into compressed natural gas (CNG). The second tank is in communication with the vaporizer. The second tank is configured to store CNG. A heat source is in communication with the second tank. The heat source uses the stored CNG to apply heat to the vaporizer.
