  1. CNG: THE GATEWAY FUEL NYCLHVCC CNG Roundtable FEBRUARY 22, 2012

  2. LET’S BE CLEAR: CNG IS A FOSSIL FUEL 2040 1700 1360 Grams of CO2e per Mile Traveled1 Grams of CO2e per MJ 1020 680 340 0 • Assuming fuel economy of 8 miles per DGE • Source: Carbon-Intensity Look-Up Tables, California Air Resources Board

  3. HOW DO YOU GET A SUSTAINABLE FUEL? Solar Energy Geothermal, Nuclear Photosynthesis Electricity Generation • Cultivated • Waste • Aquacultural Biomass Fuel Molecules Fuel Molecules Electrons • Alkanes • Methane • Hydrogen • Ammonia • Alcohols • Ethers • Hydrogen • Methanol • DME • Ammonia

  4. HERE’S ONE LOW-CARBON SCENARIO Battery Electric Petroleum Electrochemical Fuels 3. Electrochemical Fuels Can Be Produced Virtually Without Limit Vocational Vehicles Biofuels Fuel Volume 2. Biofuels Will Run into a “Limit of Viability” 1. Economics of Battery Electric Cars Will Become Compelling Battery Electric Personal Vehicles Petroleum Decades

  5. METHANE IS AT THE HEART OF THE ACTION Fossil Carbon Deposits Fermentable Feedstocks Dimethyl Ether Methanol Syngas Biomass Ammonia Methane Electrochemical Synthesis Renewable Electricity

  6. CNG: THE GATEWAY FUEL Gasoline  Ethanol Diesel Fuel > CNG CNG  Renewable Gas Renewable Gas  DME, Ammonia - - - -
