HENDERSONVILLE, NC - Construction of a new compressed natural gas fuel station began June 15 at the Henderson County maintenance facility in Hendersonville, N.C., the Asheville Citizen-Times reported.

When completed, this will be the first CNG station in Henderson County. The city of Asheville operates a CNG station, however, and there is a public CNG station in Arden.

Henderson County was awarded a $610,500 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act grant last year that will fund the station's construction. The county has also received an additional $585,841 for the purchase of new CNG transit buses. County officials also hope to attract additional grants in the future to help replace more county vehicles with CNG-fueled vehicles over the next several years.

Delivery of the CNG-fueled transit buses is expected in 2011.

Are You Tracking Your Fleet's True Total Cost of Ownership?

Bobit Business Media surveyed 190 fleet professionals and found that while most fleets are tracking costs, fragmented systems and data gaps are keeping true TCO visibility out of reach.
