Colorado Most Recent State To Award Grant To VNG
- 24/7 fast-fill CNG fueling facility to be located in downtown Denver
- Co-located within an existing retail gasoline station in a consumer-friendly environment
BALA CYNWYD, Pa., Sept. 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- VNG was recently awarded a grant by the Colorado Energy Office, in partnership with the Regional Air Quality Council and the Colorado Department of Transportation to build a fast-fill CNG fueling facility in Denver, CO. This award is the most recent example of state public-private collaboration involving VNG to encourage the nationwide use of CNG as a mainstream transportation fuel. The Denver station will be co-located within a major oil branded gasoline station featuring a convenience store.
"This grant is aligned with our model of offering fast-fill CNG fueling within traditional gasoline stations to support the development of the natural gas vehicle market for light-duty fleet and consumer drivers," said Robert Friedman, Chief Operating Officer of VNG.
Proceeding with its nationwide expansion which includes locations in large metropolitan markets such as Houston, Dallas, Philadelphia and Milwaukee, VNG's CNG facilities offer fill times comparable to gasoline and all of the amenities drivers are accustomed to when purchasing fuel, including a full-service convenience store with high quality food options, and clean rest rooms.
"We make fueling with CNG by VNG as fast, friendly, convenient and accessible as gasoline. VNG eliminates CNG fueling infrastructure costs for the fleet and the retailer while providing them with a high quality CNG fueling experience," added Mr. Friedman.
"Colorado remains a national leader in providing incentives to grow the use of natural gas as an attractive alternative transportation fuel," Friedman added. "This is another example of the growing support from federal and state government and regulatory agencies to encourage the use of CNG as a transportation fuel to help achieve the nations' clean air and energy independence objectives," Friedman concluded.
