Compressed Natural gas (CNG) is cheaper than either diesel or gasoline, any time of the year. CNG causes less wear on equipment, leading to lower maintenance costs. A wide range of reliable new CNG vehicles and conversion vehicles are available. Public-private partnerships can leverage new CNG filling stations and there are significant tax credits for CNG projects. Join us for this thought-provoking seminar and learn how your fleet can take advantage of all that natural gas has to offer.

Featured Presenter: Stephe Yborra, a leading national CNG expert from NGV America

Also Presenting: Russell Barnett, Environmental Protection Director, Smithtown, New York. Smithtown has the largest CNG-only refuse operation in the eastern U.S, and Steven Lachetta of the Albany Airport in Albany, NY.

Additionally, representatives from American Honda, Cummins Westport, Emissions Solutions Inc., and others will be on hand for a number of panel discussions about CNG use.
