Somerset Fuel Center Using CNG

The City of Somerset began CNG refueling at the city fleet fuel center, 244 Chappells Dairy Road.

Mayor Ed Girdler noted a recent round trip to Lexington costs "less than $4". They have purchased a Honda Civic and have two Ford F- 250 pick up trucks on order. They have a lease purchase agreement with Phoenix Energy, Birmingham for the three storage tanks, a compressor and slow fill unit that provides up to 4200 psi.

The site is available for public refueling upon request.
