4 Texas Triangle Growth and Demand ImpactTexas Triangle Growth and Demand Impact Texas Legislation Established Natural Gas Transportation Corridor in the 2010 Legislature. Senate Bill 20 establishes a natural gas transportation corridor in the rapidly expanding Texas Triangle, which encompasses Austin, Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston and San Antonio, by increasing the number of natural gas-refueling stations, supporting the use of natural gas-powered trucks across the state.

5 Texas Triangle ProgressTexas Triangle Progress Develop a market growth plan including policy, regulatory, legislative and develop a fleet outreach program. Process Advance the use of natural gas in transportation, develop a plan for public access stations, help transform the transportation industry by deploying NGV’s including heavy duty vehicles, and establish Texas as a leader on the development of the NGV market Goals Station growth since start of Texas Triangle work began has far exceeded initial recommendations (52 new, planned or recently awarded stations since 1/2010) Results Source: American Natural Gas Association (ANGA)

9 Next Steps: Near-Term Implementation Phase 3 Infrastructure Plans: Beyond the Triangle  Connect West to El Paso, East to Haynesville Shale, North to OKC (and onward to Canada), South through Laredo (and onward to Mexico City)  I-10 Connectivity from Houston to Los Angeles and Houston to Atlanta

10 Texas Fleets Turning to NGVsTexas Fleets Turning to NGVs Houston-based WM announced it will convert 100% of its nationwide fleet to CNG (18,342 trucks). It recently opened a public-access full retail station in Conroe, TX along the CTT. Texas-based fleets such as Central Freight (Waco), Sysco (Houston), Frito Lay (Plano), Waste Management (Houston) and other Fortune 100 fleets like UPS are now investing in natural gas vehicle programs in Texas. ANGA’s efforts spurred increased coordination for public infrastructure sharing and directly led to grant submittals and NGV program growth. Texas fleets overall are becoming leaders in NGV program efforts. UPS was awarded two natural gas stations in Texas (Houston and San Antonio) through SB 375 funding, and is coordinating with a partner for another station project in the Dallas area Source: American Natural Gas Association (ANGA)
