What’s Available Now?
Locating Current CNG Fueling Stations
• Use AFDC Station Locator
(http://www.afdc.energy.gov/locator/stations/)
• Access through all local Clean Cities websites
• Shows stations that are planned to be available soon
• Shows public and private stations
• Gives details on each facility
• Other websites include: CNGnow.com; station provider
websites; fuel management card websites; utility websites
• Often incomplete because of regional or proprietary nature

Private Developments
• Many companies will support development of new stations for fleets/municipalities
• Guaranteed load (>100,000 GGEs per year), guaranteed pricing, volumetric discounts
• Grant funding
• Capital investment
• More than ten major providers across the country
• Companies can build and operate stations themselves
• Flexibility on components/size but most upfront capital

Components of CNG
Fuel Price
> Gas Commodity (.55/GGE @ “weighted average” cost of $4.40/MCF)
> Pipeline transportation/services to utility “city gate” and then delivered under regulated tariff by your local utility to your meter uncompressed ($.10 - .25)
> Compression - Rule of thumb: One fully-loaded kWh/GGE ($.10-15/GGE)
> Station Maintenance - Normal PM, repair/replace parts, rebuild ($.15-.30/GGE)
> Equipment amortization ($.35 - .65/GGE)
─ Cost of equipment or cost of capital factored into each
GGE over life of station equipment (typically10 years)
> Station operator profit (if a retail provider)
> Add federal motor fuels excise tax & State/Local tax
─ FEET = $.183/gallon; State of IL $0.19/gallon = $0.373/GGE
> Bottom line: approximately $1.52 to $2.02 (without profit margin or any incentives)

Natural Gas Station Development and
Ownership-Operations Options: #1
> Fleet owns & operates station ─ Fleet takes responsibility for building and
then operating its own station. Fleet works with vendors or design consultant, manages build-out and takes responsibility for PM (parts, etc).
─ Applies to small-to-mid sized fleets that do not have offsite options nearby, b/c their fuel use does not meet the threshold required by most LDCs or independent developers to invest in developing, owning and operating station for them.
─ Some large fleets also opt for this but many do not have experience nor want responsibility for station operations and maintenance
23 23
Natural Gas Station Development and
Ownership-Operations Options: #2
> Outsource station development, ownership, O&M to independent fuel provider
─ Fleet serves as anchor for independent operator’s station, contracts long term fuel agreement with set price(s) and expected throughput for duration.
─ One stop shop. All capital investment and O&M risks are borne by independent fuel provider while fleet focuses on core competencies.
─ Fleet usually provides low-cost lease for property – important to making deal work - land is costly!
─ Often allows fuel provider option to create public access as well – sometimes a “royalty” paid back to fleet for retail sales from premises
24 24
Natural Gas Station Development and
Ownership-Operations Options: #3
> Fleet owns/leases station but contracts out operations for a fee (e.g., monthly fee or GGE basis)
─ Option used by many large fleets that need/desire ownership of their own station equipment but want to reduce risk, assure best O&M practices, etc
─ Contract is often (but not always) awarded to the firm that builds station; usually a 5-7yr contract.
─ Some fleets that initially Own & Operate their own stations decide that they want to delegate to others – put out RFP for O&M contract
─ Decision weighs pros/cons of “leaving $ on table” versus potential downtime risks, maintaining parts inventories, updated training of techs, etc
