  1. NYCLHVCC CNG Roundtable CNG Overview By Ronald J. Gulmi, Managing Director February 22, 2012

  2. Emerald Alternative Energy Solutions, Inc. • Mission: • Direct alternate energy programs as a fiduciary of the organization seeking to save money and/or enhance revenues • To provide fleets with petroleum reduction strategies and solutions that will improve their bottom line, the nation’s energy security, the global environment and provide enhanced community relations • Dedicated to continually expanding customer base as new opportunities emerge

  3. Market Growth Possibilities: NGVs The Roller Coaster Ride:

  4. Market Growth Possibilities: NGVs Riding the “Crest of the Wave”:

  5. Market Growth Possibilities: NGVs The Future is Bright:

  6. Market Growth Possibilities: NGVs The Stars Are All Aligned:

  7. Why the Stars Are All Aligned - Benefits • Economic • Price stability and cost less • Incentives & funding • Environment - Cleaner Air • Reduction in Carbon and GHG – go “Green” • Reduction is DPM, NOx, SOx and other pollutants • Improved Work Environment for Employees • Energy Security Improved - North American fuel reduces America’s dependence on Foreign Oil • Reduction in Noise – engines are quieter • Renewable Forms – Bio Methane • Waste Water Treatment, Landfill Gas, Anaerobic Digestion • Increased Vehicle/Equipment Product Availability • Increases in Supply – Marcellus Shale: NY, PA, OH, WV

  8. Why the Stars Are All Aligned - Benefits • The Natural Gas Industry Has Reengaged NGVs • Northeast Gas Association – reestablished the NGV Working Group • Gas Exploration and Production Companies “Gas Producers” formed American Natural Gas Alliance (ANGA) • American Gas Association (AGA) – LDCs reengaging NGV Market • Joint AGA/ANGA Transportation Collaborative – Drive Natural Gas Initiative • Legislative Advocacy • Infrastructure Development/Business Modeling • Fleet Conversions/OEM Outreach • Marketing and Education

NGVs are a “Here and Now Technology” • For the foreseeable future, there is no one, silver-bullet, panacea technology or alternative fuel that is going to replace petroleum. • We have many options – natural gas, ethanol, methanol, propane, gasoline/diesel hybrids and plug-in hybrids and natural gas hybrids.

  21. NGVs are a “Here and Now Technology” • For the foreseeable future, there is no one, silver-bullet, panacea technology or alternative fuel that is going to replace petroleum. • We have many options – natural gas, ethanol, methanol, propane, gasoline/diesel hybrids and plug-in hybrids and natural gas hybrids. • But we don’t have choices. We have to use all available technologies and fuels – and NGVs ARE AVAILABLE NOW.

  22. Why the NGV Market Will Grow • We Have the Fuel – And It’s Ours • Substantial Air Quality: Urban Pollution • Substantial Air Quality: GHGs • Biomethane Makes GHG Case Stronger • Only Natural Gas Can Displace Diesel • NGVs are a Here-and-Now Technology • Government Policymakers are (Finally) Recognizing the Value of NGVs • Money
