Description
- Activities
- The funds will be used upgrade our CNG station replace the knox 75 HP compressor operating since 2012 that has exceeded IT useful life with a new angi compressor. This will include relocating existing K-rail crash protections; extending existing concrete pad; tie into existing above ground low pressure inlet piping; tie into existing above ground high pressure outlet tube; new power conduits to existing switchgear; install new 400A breaker in existing switchgear; install a natural gas powered generator with a manual transfer switch. The expected useful life of the new compressor is 15 years.
- Expected outcomes
- This station built in 2012 and last updated in 2016 has been a dependable asset for a long time. However the time has come for vital improvements to ensure safe and reliable fueling for our fleet of 24 CNG fixed-route buses. These buses are the backbone of our community serving a broad network of cities and ensuring our most disadvantaged residents have access to transportation and can travel efficiently.

From 2012 the utilization of C/RNG has resulted in cost savings of approximately 62% compared to the average price of diesel fuel. Our riders employees and our community will benefit from this continued use of C/RNG
