1 1 Natural Gas for Transportation: The Secret Is Out Mason Ecker, Business Development Manager Florida March 17, 2010

2 2 Clean Energy Largest provider of vehicular natural gas (CNG & LNG) in North America –100+ million gallons sold during 2009 Full service –Design, Build, Operate & Maintain Stations –Fuel and Fleet Marketing –Vehicle Grants (Awarded over $150 Million) –Financing Operating Territory –190+ stations –16 U.S. States –20 Airports Publicly-traded as CLNE on NASDAQ –Fuel 17,000+ customer vehicles daily

3 Why Natural Gas for Transportation? Cheaper –Costs average between $0.50- $1.00 less per gallon than gasoline Cleaner –Cleanest burning fuel available –Reduces GHG emissions by up to 30% and NOx emissions by 85% Domestic –98% domestically produced –Gallon per gallon displacement of foreign oil –150 year supply

4 4 Average Retail Fuel Pricing

5 Economic Considerations – What Percentage of Your Budget is Related to Fuel Costs? According to the US Energy Information Administration the spread between natural gas and petroleum is forecasted to increase in the coming years; fleets using natural gas will have a competitive advantage over those using gasoline. Pricing is based on gasoline gallon equivalent of CNG (inclusive of commodity and compression fee)

6 6 NGVs Produce Significantly Less Smog and Soot N0x Reduction: Less Smog ≥85% 0-25% 10-15% -5-0% 2-6% 0-3%Minimal PM Reduction: Less Soot ≥90% w/Cat 50-65% 15-20% 35-40% ~20% >85% ~20% Greenhouse Gases OCO 23% GHG reduction compared to diesel fuel 30% GHG reduction compared to gasoline fuel CEC’s Well to Wheels Study Source: South Coast Air Quality Management District 2007 Air Quality Management Plan Summit Panel

7 7 NGVs Are a “Good Fit” for Many Fleet Applications Local/State Government –All Depts. Airports –Terminal Buses, Hotel/Parking Shuttles, Taxis, Door-to-Door Refuse –Collection/Transfer Transit –Buses, Maintenance, Supervisors School Districts –Buses, District personnel, Maint. “Short-Haul” Delivery –Food & Bev., Port-Rail, Linen Svc, Utilities –Gas/Electric/Water, Communications

15 Summary and Next Steps Fuel Diversity is the Solution to: –Reducing our GHG emissions –Increasing our energy independence –Sheltering operating budgets from $4 per gallon fuel and saving significant fuel costs Natural gas can play a key role in: –Reducing operating costs –Meeting emissions reduction policies Strong partner in Clean Energy –Turnkey CNG fueling –Design, build and operate station –Low, stable fuel price option –24/7/365 maintenance –Secure grant funding for fleet replacement
