NATURAL GAS CHOICES Natural resources of ND and policies discussed in earlier presentation provide two major NG options for fleet owners & retail fuelers: • Compressed Natural Gas, CNG • Liquefied Natural Gas, LNG

NG APPLICATIONS

CNG: • Fleets that return to base every day • Fleets with significant vehicle populations • Retail fuelers supporting local fleets and other vehicle owners LNG: • Retail fuelers supplying Over The Road long haul fleet vehicles Considerations: •

• •



US current NG fueling stations: 1,204 CNG stations, 67 LNG stations LNG fueling investment substantially more than CNG LNG fueling requires ~40% of the volume of CNG for same distance If LNG sits in vehicle tank for a while, the liquid warms and gasifies, and requires venting

CNG DESIGN PARAMETERS For Fleet Owners and Retailers it’s important to accurately estimate the time needed for filling and the volume of fuel required • Planning should consider initial needs and expected growth • Collect vehicle quantities, types and fuel consumption by vehicle • To size the CNG fueling system, determine the highest demand fuel window • To size the station use average fuel consumption per vehicle not maximum. Maximum capacity will oversize the station

DESIGN PARAMETERS - STATION TYPE • Type of station required will influence the size and cost of equipment: • Time Fill—fill entire fleet directly from the compressor over a period of hours • Cascade Fast Fill—fill each vehicle in 5 to 20 minutes primarily from stored gas cylinders

• Buffer Fast Fill—fill each vehicle in 5 to 20 minutes directly from the compressor(s)

DESIGN PARAMETERS - TIME FILL Time Fill - useful for fleets that return to base • Fill entire fleet directly from the compressor over a period of hours • Simple, reliable technology and very good fills • Lowest cost option

TIME FILL - EXAMPLES Refueling Refuse Trucks

Gas Control Package

Time-fill Post and Panel

Time-fill Stands on Jersey-blocks Time-fill Local Gas Panel

DESIGN PARAMETERS - CASCADE •

Typical - three pressure / fill levels • Compressor activated when pressure drops • System controls which tank is used



For fueling fleets in short (1 to 2 hour) periods



For retail fueling



Fill each vehicle in 5 to 20 minutes primarily from stored gas

NGV Station Equipment – Compressor for for Transit & Trucking Dual Packages Compressors Larger Capacity Stations

DESIGN PARAMETERS - BUFFER • Used where continuous fueling is preferred • Compressor runs whenever fueling • Limited storage capacity

DESIGN PARAMETERS-GAS SUPPLY Meet with the Gas Utility to determine available gas properties:

– Inlet line pressure range (max, min) and line size – Gas composition, including moisture, must be provided by the Utility – These factors determine basis of design – Equipment selection – Fueling system flow capacity range – Basis of performance measurement – Commercial expectations

STATION EQUIPMENT - DRYER Remove moisture from the gas: • Inlet drying required, per code

• Regeneration equipment recommended • Manual vs. automatic • Single vs. multiple

STATION EQUIPMENT - COMPRESSOR Raises gas pressure from utility service pressure to 4,500 psig: – Reciprocating compressor – Usually electric motor powered – Can use natural gas engine – Multiple compressors used for redundancy

STATION EQUIPMENT - STORAGE Required for Cascade and Buffer Stations: • ASME design code • 5,500 psig shell design • 4,500 psig normal operating pressure • Tubes or spheres

STATION EQUIPMENT - DISPENSER Dispense gas to the vehicles: – Time fill or fast fill – Measurement – Automatic data logging interface – Time fill typically simple dispensing – Fast fill typically automated measurement and data management, including billing

LNG FOR TRANSPORTATION FUELING (I) •

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG)

• Liquefying gas requires additional investment for cooling and pressurization (-260 °F, 50 psig) and storage • Liquefying increases energy density, providing longer distance capabilities compared to CNG (~65% of gasoline, 60% of diesel) • Best suited for long distance driving (e.g. OTR Trucks)

4/24/2013

LNG FOR TRANSPORTATION FUELING (II) – For fueling vehicles: • LNG is either liquefied and transported or chilled at point of use • LNG may be fed to vehicle as either liquid or gas • If liquid, must be kept cold on vehicle – Retail LNG costs between 30 percent to 40 percent less than diesel – If LNG sits in vehicle tank for a while, the liquid warms and gasifies, and requires venting. • Natural Gas is a major GHG, with much higher warming (20x) effect than CO 2 • To mitigate this, need vehicles to consume fuel in a couple of days to avoid venting or other special process for venting avoidance

BUILDING MODIFICATIONS Indoor garages will likely require some upgrades: • No open flame or heaters >750 F • Continuous exhaust and makeup air and ventilation to prevent pocketing • Electrical upgrades may be required— not necessarily a hazardous location • Gas detection system with interlocks to alarms, exhaust fans, doors… Outdoor installations may require gas detection system with interlocks to alarms LNG has additional building safety requirements

NG TRANSMISSION SCHEMATIC

NATURAL GAS DISTRIBUTION •

From well, NG is cleaned up to meet utility grade specs: • Remove water, CO 2, H2S, sulfur, mercury, N 2, other • Separate Natural Gas Liquids (NGLs) from Natural Gas (NGLs = Higher hydrocarbons that are liquid at atmospheric pressure, CH 4 is not) • Typically 85 to 95% methane, CH4, as delivered



Fuel is abundant in the US



Natural gas is distributed & available through existing pipelines



When combusted





Produces about 30% fewer greenhouse gases



Produces little or no other pollutants

Natural gas is as safe as gasoline 4/24/2013

NATURAL GAS: NOT JUST FOR HEATING AND COOKING •

Natural Gas is an excellent and well established, low cost fuel for transportation



In the US, there are 1271 public and private NG fueling stations in US (US EIA April 2013) • 1,204 CNG (574 public, 630 private) • 67 LNG



Compares to 160,000 traditional liquid fueling stations in US (2012 National Petroleum News Survey)



In ND, there are 2 CNG and no LNG Stations (Apr 2013 US DOE)

LEVEL THE PLAYING FIELD •

NG fuel use has lower un-priced social costs • Emissions



Petroleum fuels have existing advantages • Social costs are not included in the price • Negative externality costs are not included • Infrastructure investments are already in place.

INFRASTRUCTURE CHALLENGES • Consumers unwilling to buy CNG vehicles before infrastructure is built,



• Businesses will not invest in CNG stations until there is consumer demand.

Lack of refueling facilities leads to a chicken-and-egg problem



• Neither is willing to move without the other

This challenges a good efficient product to get to market



May prevent an optimal mix of oil and natural gas fuels



There is a need for government policies and incentives to drive the success

NG ECONOMIES OF SCALE FOR NORTH DAKOTA If the Total Production of NG in North Dakota were used only to fuel passenger vehicles: • At 2010 production rates, ~ 1.7 million passenger cars, 4 times the number of Passenger vehicles in North Dakota. • At 2012 best production rates, ~3.9 million passenger cars, 10 times the number in North Dakota If Total Production of ND NG were used only to heat homes • At 2010 production rates, ~2.9 million people, over 4 times the population of North Dakota • At 2012 best production rates, about 6.6 million people, almost 10 times the population of North Dakota If the FLARED Natural Gas in North Dakota were used only to fuel passenger vehicles • •

At 2010 production rates, ~ 0.5 million passenger cars, 1.3 times the number of passenger vehicles in North Dakota. At 2012 best production rates, this would provide fuel for about 1.1 million passenger cars, almost 3 times the number of passenger vehicles in North Dakota

NORTH DAKOTA LEGISLATIVE INITIATIVE •

A bill was introduced in the 63 rd Legislative assembly by Rep. Dwight Kiefert (R) to find ways of better utilizing natural gas thereby providing economical benefit for the businesses and communities of ND while reducing flaring at gas wells.



Green Way Energy has in support of Rep. Kiefert‘s bill presented both in the House and the senate on the need for ND to provide legislation supporting the breaking of the ―egg shell‖ in the Chicken – egg hindrance.



HRC 3016 has now passed both and will go to the Legislative Management for study.



Study will provide the legislature with material to make useful legislation that will support the utilization of NG predominantly for transportation use in gaseous and liquid form.

NEXT STEPS •

Evaluate feasibility of alternative uses for natural gas for State of North Dakota • Capture current (―As-Is‖) production and consumption patterns • Define ideas and recommendations for using ND NG (―To-Be‖ scenarios) • Define alternative uses for energy sectors • Define potential allocation of flared NG for energy usage in existing sectors • Develop ideas for associated infrastructure requirements • Define risks

• Define financial requirements and justifications (ROIs) • Define required and interested participants required to successfully define, develop and launch new usage of NG within and external to North Dakota • Recommend pilot and full scale ideas to establish and deploy solutions

Case Studies

CONVERSION BASICS •

Keep it Legal, Make it Safe, Do it Right



If you search for CNG on the Internet, you will find lots of do-ityourself kits that are not EPA certified.



The Federal Law is very clear and it is illegal to tamper with any motor vehicle’s emissions profile and the government can assess up to a $5,000 / day fine.



Tanks should be certified by an approved inspection firm.

CONVERSION BASICS

―the driver‘s seat can be removed for more tanks‖

CONVERSION BASICS •

Bi-Fuel, Dual-Fuel, Dedicated?



Dedicated – A dedicated CNG vehicle is one that runs only on CNG. It can be either a new vehicle with a CNG engine or a repower. In either case, the old fuel tank is normally removed and replaced with CNG Cylinders. This is a great choice for vehicles running predictable routes with access to company-owned fueling stations (for example, Food & Beverage delivery trucks and School Buses).



Mixed Fuel – The EPA calls any vehicle that blends CNG with diesel or other fuels a “mixed” fuel vehicle. In practice, there are some engines – like the Cummins/Westport ISX12G – that use a small amount of diesel but basically act as dedicated CNG Engines. That is to say, if you run out of CNG your are not going very far. We call these types of vehicles “mixed fuel” and, like dedicated systems, they are a great choice if you have predictable routes and you need the high torque of a heavy duty diesel engine. The main advantage of this system is that it can run 90% or more CNG while retaining many of the operating benefits of diesel. As of now, these are only available in new trucks.

CONVERSION BASICS •

Dual Fuel – Technically, a dual fuel is categorized by the EPA as a “mixed fuel” because it blends natural gas with diesel by injecting it into the turbocharger BUT there is a big difference. On a dual fuel like the American Power Group™ products, the vehicle can still run on 100% diesel. That means if you run out of CNG you keep right on going, just like you did in the old days. You keep your existing diesel tanks and install additional CNG cylinders that extend the range. Depending on your load, a dual fuel system will use up to 50% CNG on average. This is a great choice for existing fleet customers that need range and fuel flexibility and do not want to go through the expense of replacing vehicles that have hundreds of thousands of miles remaining in their life.



Bi-fuel systems are also called “switchable” systems because you can switch between gasoline or CNG. Most conversions we do for light duty (new or used trucks) are bi-fuel because they give the customer the best of both worlds. You can run on CNG as long as you have fuel in the tank and switch over to gasoline. Most modern bi-fuel systems are fully automated, switching to gasoline when they need to and then automatically switching back once the CNG tank is filled. Bi-fuel vehicles come equipped with two fuel gauges and a switch to move from CNG to gasoline if the driver desires.

CONVERSION BASICS

CONVERSION BASICS •

Will my engine have to be modified to operate on the Bi-Fuel?



No. The conversion technology has been designed to allow for in-field retrofit of diesel engines without the need to change or modify the design of the engine. The conversion hardware is mounted externally on the engine.



What about my engine warranty?



Most OEM engine warranty programs do not prohibit the use of aftermarket parts or technologies. In brief, the policy of OEM's is that they neither recommend nor endorse aftermarket technologies. In practice, if a converted engine has a failure under warranty, the OEM, in conjunction with technical personnel, make a determination as to the cause of the failure.



Why can't the engine use 100% natural gas?



Because of the very high ignition temperature of natural gas (approximately 1300°F), sufficient heat is not generated during the diesel compression stroke to ignite 100% natural gas. As such, dedicated gas engines employ spark plugs and an ignition system to facilitate combustion of the air-natural gas mixture. In contrast, during Bi-Fuel operation, a reduced quantity of diesel fuel acts as the ignition source for the air-gas mixture; this process is often referred to as pilot ignition.

CONVERSION BASICS •

Will my engine lose power after conversion to Bi-Fuel?



Under normal circumstances, engines converted to the Bi-Fuel do not suffer any horsepower losses while operating in Bi-Fuel Mode. Because the System maintains OEM compression ratio values and does not incorporate an air-throttling device, peak horsepower and efficiency levels of the converted engine remain on par with 100% diesel operation- In some circumstances, the engine may be derated in Bi-Fuel mode due to shortcomings in gas supply composition and/or quality.



Will my engine run hotter on Bi-Fuel?



The Bi-Fuel technology has been designed to maintain OEM specifications for all engine temperatures including engine coolant temperature, oil temperature, exhaust gas temperature and intake air temperature. The Bi-Fuel System replaces diesel fuel normally consumed by the engine with an equivalent quantity of natural gas, relative to the heat value of each fuel. As such, engine a/r-fuel ratios during Bi-Fuel operation remain largely equivalent to 100% diesel operation, resulting in normal peak exhaust gas temperatures and associated peak engine thermal loads.

CONVERSION BASICS •

What about efficiency?



As explained above, the Bi-Fuel System replaces diesel fuel with an equivalent quantity of natural gas. This process results in the same net fuel burn vs. load as would be experienced during 100% diesel operation. For each gallon of diesel fuel displaced during Bi-Fuel operation, there is a corresponding consumption of approximately 140 cubic feet of pipeline quality natural gas (based on 129,000 btu/gallon # 2 diesel & 930 btu/scf natural gas). Thus, for each gallon of diesel fuel displaced during Bi -Fuel operation,, an "equivalent gallon" of natural gas is consumed resulting in similar engine fuel efficiencies. Note: 1 m3 of natural gas = 1 liter # 2 diesel.



What effect will the System have on the durability of my engine?



Generally speaking, operation in Bi-Fuel mode has no negative effects on engine wear rates and durability. AS explained above, because engine thermal loads are equivalent to 100% diesel operation, no excess wear of combustion chamber components (pistons, rings, valves, injectors, etc.) occurs. In addition, many users of Bi -Fuel have reported positive benefits relative to engine wear including extended oil change intervals and extended time between overhauls. This is primarily the result of the cleaner burning characteristics of natural gas compared to diesel fuel.

PRICE RISK What happens when natural gas is no longer dirt cheap? •

By now, the shale-gas story is well-known.



Four years ago, natural gas cost around $9 per million British thermal units — too costly for most electricity needs.



But recently, thanks to big advances in drilling techniques, companies have been able to extract gas from shale-rock formations in places like Texas and Pennsylvania.



Natural gas prices dropped below $2 per million BTUs last year.



As a result, electric utilities switched from coal to cleaner natural gas, which emits less carbon when burned.

Remanufacturing the Ultimate Form of Recycling? • Remanufacturing differs from recycling because remanufacturing "recycles" the value originally added to the raw material. • Remanufacturing also differs from recycling, most importantly because it makes a much greater economic contribution per unit of product than does recycling. • Remanufacturing recaptures the value-added product when it was first manufactured. In fact, a 1981 Massachusetts Institute of Technology study on the remanufacturing of automobile components indicated that approximately 85% of the energy expended in the manufacture of the original product was preserved in the remanufactured product. This is why remanufacturing is considered the ultimate form of recycling & resource conservation.

Case Studies

Colton saved over $500,000 per year with just 48 buses

“it costs $80 a day in gasoline money to operate a diesel bus on the district's far-flung routes, compared to only $12 a day for a CNG bus.”

Case Studies 2005 Report confirms that CNG Vehicles operate at less $$$ than Diesel over vehicle life cycle

FUEL Savings alone 25-40% better than Diesel

WHY NGV‘ S •

Abundant domestic supply of natural gas



Natural gas engines emit less GHG‘ s (20-30%)



Significantly lower fuel costs (40-50%)



Natural gas engines performance is similar to that of gasoline / diesel engines



Growing variety of light, medium, and heavy duty vehicles from leading OEM‘ s and engine manufacturers are being produced



A vigorous NG refueling industry is emerging which will expand refueling options.

TYPES OF NGVS •

CNG – Compressed Natural Gas • Delivered through local distribution system, compressed and stored • 3600 PSI System in the standard



LNG – Liquefied Natural Gas • Cryogenically cooled to liquid form at -260 F • Stored in liquid form on vehicle and vaporized as it enters engine • Storage capacity versus weight is primary advantage



Dedicated or Bi-Fuel vehicles • Conversions • OEM‘ s

MONTANA-DAKOTA CNG HISTORY •

Montana-Dakota invested heavily in natural gas vehicles (NGV) and compressed natural gas (CNG) infrastructure in the early 1980‘ s



Montana-Dakota moved away from NGV‘ s in 1990‘ s due to aftermarket conversion certification issues and cost



Montana-Dakota currently does not have any fleet vehicles on natural gas.



Montana-Dakota has four remaining 3000 PSI CNG refueling stations remaining. Stations will continue to be decommissioned as they fail or become no longer feasible to keep in operation.

MONTANA-DAKOTA‘S ROLE •

Primary role is to provide natural gas distribution service to any proposed refueling stations. • Support of industry and work with interested parties regarding infrastructure placement in our service territory. • Public or Private • Montana-Dakota fleet considerations



At this time Montana-Dakota does not expect to invest in building and/or owning refueling stations. • Existing Petroleum Marketers • Private Fleets • Private / Public investment
