Utah CNG co-op?

[mickey]

There would be no point right now, but when our 64-cent "scam" gets taken away (and it will) has anybody thought about forming a Co-op?

We could build 2 or 3 small refuelling stations, charge ourselves a cheap price using Co-op issued cards, and let the general public use credit cards for an upcharge. 10 cents per gallon or so.

Just looking toward the future. Maybe one in the Ogden area, a couple in the SL valley, and one down in Utah county. Near freeway ramps.

I like it, but I have to say the most people drive CNG because they don't have money, not because they want to save the planet.

Money is certainly an issue. In the long run, though, the combination of increased demand and a need to upgrade the infrastructure is going to cause a BIG increase in pump prices. The good news is that more demand means more people to buy into a Co-Op.

The Biodiesel folks already made this work. It's certainly do-able.

Like I said, it'll be a while before it's meaningful. But the day will come.
