So how much does it cost in electricity to compress 100 miles worth of natural gas?
Not sure. Elec is pretty low priced here (until the Baraqqis get our coal plants shut down).
To me it’s not so much the operating cost but the ability to have your own fuel supply that is desirable.
For the PHILL?

Electrical Consumption During Fueling: 0.8kwh (average).
General Purpose Electrical Rating.
