Plenty of it here. Personally I doubt it will ever be economical as fuel for cars aside from inner city fleets but for heat and electricity production its fine.

Personally I doubt it will ever be economical as fuel for cars aside from inner city fleets but for heat and electricity production its fine.

I live in the heart of the Marcellus Shale play in Pennsylvania. I just was invited and attended a business rountable with T Boone Pickens, Pennsy Gov Tom Corbett, and several gas industry executives.

Here is the plan:

The Marcellus will provide natural gas, via pipeline, from North Carolina into Canada. This will be used mostly for homes and industrial purposes.

Several cities, like Williamsport, and gas companies will build NG fueling stations. The cities will power buses, snow plows, trucks, etc. The companies will start switching their drilling fleet to NG.

Both the city and the drillers will make their pumps available to the public.....perhaps even for free.

Local businesses will start to switch their trucks over, creating more demand.

That is when operators of big fueling stations, like Sheetz, Wal-Mart, Pilot Truck Stops, T/A Truck Stops, etc will all start installing NG pumps.

It will spread from there throughout the region.....slowly, but without taxpayer money (except for what the cities install who will probably get the NG for free for several years).

The free market takes care of this nicely.
