.
“Golden Age” of Natural Gas The Golden Age of Natural Gas, 2007 to present
– Abundant, 98% of the natural gas we use is domestic, estimated now well over 200 yrs
supply and growing
– Cheap there is an abundant supply at lower cost
 Decoupling of oil and gas prices
 2008 price in the $13.00-$15.00/Mcf range, today $3.80- $5.50 Mcf
– Clean burning
– Natural gas is driving change in transportation, currently 1,100 CNG stations nationwide
Texas Triangle Growth and Demand Impact
Texas Legislation Established Natural Gas Transportation Corridor
in the 2010 Legislature.
• Senate Bill 20 establishes a natural gas transportation corridor in the rapidly
expanding Texas Triangle, which encompasses Austin, Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston
and San Antonio, by increasing the number of natural gas-refueling stations,
supporting the use of natural gas-powered trucks across the state.
Texas Triangle Progress
Goals
Process
Results
• Advance the use of natural gas in transportation, develop a plan for public
access stations, help transform the transportation industry by deploying NGV’s
including heavy duty vehicles, and establish Texas as a leader on the
development of the NGV market
• Develop a market growth plan including policy, regulatory, legislative and
develop a fleet outreach program.
•Station growth since start of Texas Triangle work began has far
exceeded initial recommendations (52 new, planned or recently awarded
stations since 1/2010)

Texas Fleets Turning to NGVs
Texas-based fleets such as Central Freight (Waco), Sysco (Houston), Frito Lay (Plano), Waste
Management (Houston) and other Fortune 100 fleets like UPS are now investing in natural gas
vehicle programs in Texas. ANGA’s efforts spurred increased coordination for public infrastructure
sharing and directly led to grant submittals and NGV program growth. Texas fleets overall are
becoming leaders in NGV program efforts.
Houston-based WM announced it
will convert 100% of its nationwide
fleet to CNG (18,342 trucks). It
recently opened a public-access
full retail station in Conroe, TX
along the CTT.
UPS was awarded two natural
gas stations in Texas (Houston
and San Antonio) through SB
375 funding, and is coordinating
with a partner for another station
project in the Dallas area

Emissions Reduction Incentive Grant - TCEQ
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) offers a
variety grants periodically to help offset first dollar costs of
conversion from gasoline or diesel fuels to CNG. One particularly of
interest to this group is:
• Emissions Reduction Incentive Grant (ERIG) was released the first week in
September. Under this program, the customer can submit any number of vehicles
for replacement, there is no limit. Some of the requirements are that trucks must
have a minimum gross vehicle weight rating of 8,500 lbs and could go as high
as 80,000 lbs, i.e., haul trucks, dump trucks (registered up to 80,000 lbs), street
sweepers, garbage trucks, delivery trucks, you name it! This program is not only
limited to On-Road vehicles, but it includes Non-Road equipment, from agricultural
tractors to heavy construction vehicles.
