Fueling Options Mono - Fuel – Using only one dedicated fuel source - gasoline, diesel, LPG or CNG Bi – Fuel – Using the alternate fuel such as LPG or CNG and switching (manually or automatically) to the standard vehicle fuel. Dual – Fuel – Using both the standard vehicle fuel and the alternate fuel at the same time - operate the engine on 50/50, 80/20, 85/15, 90/10% diesel and CNG.

History of Propane Propane discovered - Dr. Walter Snelling First Propane vehicle in USA ,000 Propane vehicles in US Third most popular fuel behind gasoline and diesel Today – Over 300,000 Propane vehicles in USA Worldwide – 17 million vehicles powered with Propane – Less than 2% in the USA???

Low cost and 97% domestically produced Non-toxic, burns cleanly & is not a ground contaminant Not a Greenhouse Gas Abundant Supply in the U.S. - 55% comes from natural gas & 45% from refining oil Similar MPG and fuel fill rate as gasoline 104 Octane Rating Less cost per gallon than gasoline - typically % less than gasoline What is Propane?

Pros of Propane Vehicle Power, Acceleration & Payload Comparable to Gasoline 104 Octane VS 87 to 92 for gasoline Burns Completely, Less Carbon build-up Less engine maintenance expense Reports of cutting oil change costs 50% Very environmentally friendly Green Footprint C 3 H 8 VS Gasoline C 8 H 18 & Diesel C 14 H 30

Why Propane Price is 40 to 50% less than Gasoline Affordable Infrastructure 15 to 1 ??? Free with propane supplier contract Fill vehicle in your parking lot Emissions reduction compared to Gasoline 60% reduction of Carbon Monoxide 12% reduction of Carbon Dioxide 20% reduction of Nitrous Oxide 40% reduction of Hydrocarbons

Infrastructure is the KEY! Skid package supplied by your supplier at no charge with a multiyear fuel contract. Fits in a single parking space at your facility Powered by 120/240 Volt Single Phase Lower operational cost than CNG stations operating on 480 Volt / 3 Phase 15 to 1 price ratio VS CNG Install 15 Propane Stations VS One CNG station with the same capacity and fill rates.
