Several variants exist for a Fleet or End-User Ownership model. These models typically apply to entities that have vehicles that require fueling and desire to own the station that provides that fuel. The “Own and Operate” model applies to entities that will own and operate the CNG station. In some cases, the ownership could be shared among multiple entities using the same station or with a utility in a hybrid arrangement. Variations include the following:
Ownership Differences:
a) The ownership entity uses its own personnel for operation and maintenance of the facility b) The ownership entity contracts with a third-party for operation and maintenance of the facility
Fueling Sources:
a) The ownership entity contracts with a utility for the regulated transportation and sale of natural gas to the station b) The ownership entity contracts with a third party for the natural gas commodity and the utility entity provides regulated transportation service to the delivery point
Fast Fill
Generally, fast-fill stations are best suited for retail situations where light-duty vehicles, such as vans, pickups Cheap Detroit Lions Jerseys , and sedans, arrive randomly and need to fill up quickly. The space needed to store the equipment measures about the size of a parking space. CNG can also be delivered via dispensers alongside gasoline or other alternative fuels dispensers. Fast-fill stations receive fuel from a local utility line at a low pressure and then use a compressor on site to compress the gas to a high pressure. Once compressed, the CNG moves to a series of storage vessels so the fuel is available for a quick fill-up. Drivers filling up at a fast-fill station experience similar fill times to a conventional gasoline fueling station—less than 5 minutes for a 20 gallon equivalent tank. CNG at fast-fill stations is often stored in the vessels at a high service pressure (4,300 psi), so it can deliver fuel to a vehicle faster than the fuel coming directly from the compressor Cheap Denver Broncos Jerseys , which delivers fuel at a lower volume. Drivers use a dispenser to transfer CNG into the tank. The dispenser uses sensors to calculate pressure and measure the number of GGEs delivered to the tank, taking temperature into account.
