  1. ALTERNATIVEFUELS

  2. Current IFTA Alternative Fuels • Gasohol • Ethanol • Methanol • Propane (LPG) • Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) • Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) • A-55 • E-85 • M-85

  3. E-85 • ETHONAL • GASOLINE MODIFIED GASOLINE ENGINE

  4. M-85 • METHONAL • GASOLINE MODIFIED GASOLINE ENGINE

  5. A-55 • Naptha • Water • Blending Agent MODIFIED DIESEL ENGINE

  6. By Lubrizol Corporation WATER IMULSION DIESEL FUEL

  7. EMULSIFIED DIESEL FUEL + + WATER DIESEL EMULSIFIER = PURINOX

  8. BIO-DIESEL CORN OIL VEGETABLE OIL GREASE Mixed with lye to separate the esters

  9. LIQUID NATURAL GAS • Lower cost to install fueling facilities • LNG fuel tank interchangeable with diesel fuel tank • Higher cost per gallon • LNG fuel tank and fuel is heavier

  10. LNG TANK INSTALLED

  11. COMPRESSED NATURAL GAS • Lower cost per gallon • Lighter fuel tanks and fuel • Cost of installing fueling facilities double that of an LNG facility • Fuel tanks are bulky and must be protected, usually placed behind the cab of the truck

  12. CNG TANKS ON VEHICLE ^ CNG Tanks

  13. DUAL FUEL VEHICLES

  14. VEHICLE TYPES • DUAL FUEL VEHICLES • BI-FUELVEHICLES • HYBRID VEHICLES

  15. DUAL FUEL Vehicles that can operate on two fuels simultaneously GENERALLY Diesel and CNG or LNG BI-FUEL Vehicles that operate on two fuels individually GENERALLY Gasoline and LPG DEFINITION • HYBRID Vehicles operate on two fuels simultaneously or individually • GENERALLY Gasoline and E-85 or M85

  16. FUELS USED • Diesel Fuel Primary fuel used to operate the engine • LNG or CNG Secondary fuels introduced to reduce emissions. It can only be used in combination with diesel fuel

  17. DUAL FUEL MANIFOLD DIESEL MANIFOLD

  18. FUEL SYSTEM • Starts and idles on • diesel • 160 degrees looks for • alternative fuel. • If alternative fuel is • available the system • begins injecting • CNG or LNG

  19. PERCENTAGE OF FUEL START & IDLE 100% DIESEL AVERAGES 20 % DIESEL 80 % CNG OR LNG PEAK 6% DIESEL 94% CNG OR LNG

  20. CUSTOMER BASE • Government entities • Private companies with government contracts • Private Companies interested in alternative fuel sources

  21. INTRASTATE CARRIERS Diesel Fuel Tax paid when fuel is purchased LNG & CNG Tax paid by carrier directly to the Board on a return or by purchasing Flat Rate Stickers

  22. DUAL FUEL & PTO PTO Vehicles A customer base for dual fuel vehicles are waste disposal companies. These vehicles operate PTO’s and claim refunds with the BOE How do they claim refunds ?

  23. INTERSTATE CARRIERS • Diesel Tax paid at the pump in California • LNG or CNG Tax paid to the BOE Cannot use California Flat Rate Sticker • Tax Reporting Join IFTA or buy fuel trip permits

  24. 10 Diesel vehicles Travel 100,000 miles a quarter between CA& NV 40% of those miles are in Nevada All fuel is purchased in California 10 Dual fuel vehicles Travel 100,000 miles a quarter between CA& NV 10% of those miles are in Nevada All fuel is purchased in California EXAMPLE OF DIESEL AND DUAL FUEL IFTA FLEET How do they report?

  25. COMBINED DIESEL SCHEDULE

  26. DUAL FUEL CNG SCHEDULE

  27. SPLIT FLEET REPORTING • Carrier must file two IFTA Reports • The IFTA account number is coded to identify the dual fuel fleet • Report an accurate fleet MPG

  28. DIESEL FLEET SCHEDULE

  29. DUAL FUEL DIESEL SCHEDULE

  30. DUAL FUEL CNG SCHEDULE

  31. CHALLENGES OF ALTERNATIVE FUELS • Accounting for each new fuel type • Standardized measurement of the fuel (Therm vs. PSI) • Tax on new fuel types • Combination of fuels being used

  32. The End
