1 Citizens Energy Conference Hyatt Regency, September 15, 2010 Natural Gas as a Transportation Fuel: Benefits, Challenges, and Implementation Doug Lubs President Clean Cities / 1

2 What Is Natural Gas? A combustible, gaseous mixture of simple hydrocarbon compounds, primarily methane Usually extracted from gas and oil wells. Smaller amounts are derived from supplemental sources such as landfill gas and coal-derived gas. Large deposits exist in more than half of the 50 states. Classified as an alternative fuel by the Energy Policy Act of 1992 Accounts for 22% of U.S. energy use and 2.2% of energy used for U.S. transportation Source: EIA s Annual Energy Review 2006, Table 1.3 and DOE s Transportation Energy Data Book (edition 26) Table 2.2. Clean Cities / 2

3 Natural Gas Vehicles 120,500 natural gas vehicles on U.S. roads in K in private (fleets and consumers) 10.7K in state fleets 11.4K in federal fleets Federal Fleets State 9% Fleets 9% Private, Corporate, & Local Govt. 82% Source: EIA, Alternatives to Traditional Transportation Fuels 2005, Table V9 and V13. Clean Cities / 3

4 Natural Gas Fueling Stations More than 825 natural gas fueling stations in the United States: 35 LNG 790 CNG 355 Public 470 Private LNG Public 1% LNG Private 3% CNG Private 54% CNG Public 42% Source: DOE AFDC, Feb 2008 Clean Cities / 4

5 Types of Natural Gas for Vehicles Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Generally used in vehicles at psi (household natural gas pipe pressure is ~1-2 psi). Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Made by lowering the temperature of CNG until it becomes a liquid. Equivalent Energy Content 1 gal. gasoline 1 gal. diesel 118 scf CNG 130 scf CNG 1.6 gal. LNG 1.7 gal. LNG Clean Cities / 5

6 Why Use Natural Gas Vehicles (NGVs)? Increased Energy Security Natural gas is a domestically available fuel Public Health and Environment Protection 80% less particulate matter 21-25% less greenhouse gas emissions Source: Wang, M.Q. and H.S. Huang, A Full Fuel-Cycle Analysis of Energy and Emissions Impacts of Transportation Fuels Produced from Natural Gas, December Clean Cities / 6

7 Light Duty NGVs Use CNG Limited to one model (Honda Civic) for OEM vehicles EPA-certified conversions available from a variety of companies Home refueling devices Clean Cities / 7

8 Heavy Duty NGVs May use LNG or CNG Larger engines typically use LNG OEM engines available from Cummins-Westport Coming soon, International EPA certified re-power engines and conversions available from a variety of companies Clean Cities / 8

9 Natural Gas Transit Buses Most established natural gas niche market Annual consumption (2006): 109 million diesel gallon equivalent of natural gas 15% of transit vehicles in 2006 powered by natural gas Source: USDOT-FTA Alternative Fuels Study, December 2006 and APTA 2007 Vehicle Survey Clean Cities / 9

10 Other Heavy-Duty NGVs Shuttle buses Trolleys Street sweepers Delivery trucks Refuse haulers Utility trucks Fork lifts Clean Cities / 10

11 Natural Gas Guides Heavy Vehicle and Engine Resource Guide Available Natural Gas Vehicles and Engines Clean Cities / 11

12 Federal Tax Incentives for NGVs Vehicle Tax Credits (for new or retrofits) Light Duty (up to 8,500 lb): up to $5,000 Medium Duty (up to 14,000 lb): up to $10,000 Medium-Heavy Duty (up to 26,000 lb): up to $25,000 Heavy Duty (more than 26,000 lb): up to $40,000 Expire 12/31/10 Clean Cities / 12

13 Federal Incentives for Fuel & Infrastructure Fuel Excise Tax Credits (currently expired Bills on Hill to reinstate) Fifty cents per gasoline-gallon equivalent of CNG or LNG Infrastructure Tax Credit (Expires 12/31/10, Bills on Hill to extend) 50% of cost of infrastructure Up to $50,000 per project public or private Up to $1,000 for home refueling appliance.

Clean Cities / 18

19 Fuelmaker VRA (Vehicle Refueling Appliance) Slow fill application up to 3600 PSIG Fuels at a rate of 1 GGE per hour 4000 hour scheduled service interval Estimated Cost $10, Clean Cities / 19

20 Bauer Medium size CNG Compressors Slow fill application to 3600 PSIG Fuels at a rate of 2.75 to 70 GGE per hour Can refuel fast fill storage up to 5000 PSIG Estimated Cost $35,000 to $160,000 Clean Cities / 20

21 Citizens Gas / Greene s Upgrade Clean Cities / 21

22 Citizens Gas / Greene s Upgrade Current CNG Station consists of: Two hose dispenser with card reader 30,000 cubic feet CNG storage tanks which allows approx. 75 GGE fast fill Compressor that delivers 2 GGE / Minute or 120 GGE / Hour Clean Cities / 22

23 Citizens Gas / Greene s Upgrade Upgrade of CNG station to consist of: New two hose dispenser and card reader New additional compressor rated for 5.25 GGE / Minute or 315 GGE / Hour Total compressor capacity will deliver just over 7 GGE / Minute and set up as direct / Buffer fill system Large vehicles like INDOT dump trucks that require 60 to 70 DGE per refuel will direct fill in about a 10 minute process Compressor cost = $225, week build time Clean Cities / 23
