Why Natural Gas Vehicles?
Cheaper
– Costs average between $1.25- $2.00 less per gallon than gasoline/diesel – Continued outlook for lower prices due to substantial shale discoveries in United States
Cleaner
– Cleanest burning fuel available – Reduces GHG emissions by up to 30% and NOx emissions by 85%
Domestic
– 97% domestically produced – 100% displacement of foreign oil – 120+ year supply
Historically Stable and Budget Friendly
According to the US Energy I nformation Administration the spread between natural gas and petroleum is forecasted to increase in the coming years; fleets using natural gas will have a competitive advantage over those using gasoline.

Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Basics
Light, medium, and medium-heavy duty vehicles
Gas delivered by utility pipeline to fueling station
Gas is compressed at the station to 3600 psi for dispensing
Dispensed at flow rate similar to gasoline & diesel – Dispensing ranges from 5 to 15 GPM depending on compressor sizing
Stored in 1 or more cylinders on vehicle
