Canadian NG price

[jcap1958]

I see a huge differencial on the Canadian pricing. Is it due to subsidies or do they use different unit measurement? Michigan is hovering $2 and Canada is around 70 to 80 cents. Do they go Gasoline Equivalant Litre instead of gallon?

Anyone?

jcap1958,
All the listings I see are for liters. I'd assume you'd multiply their price by 3.785 to convert to gallons.
Which would give you $2.65 - $3.03 per GGE.
My math could be wrong, I don't have any metric CNG references at hand.

Hi Jcap1958 :

Yes, CNGHal is correct. ( once again )

Up here in Canada, the CNG price on the pump is actually the price for 1 Kilogram of CNG.

For example, the pump near my house has a price of $1.11 per Kg.

To convert the $1.11 per Kg price, I need to first convert to Liters. So:

1. 1.11 * .67 = .74 cents per liter
2. Then .74 *3.785 = $2.81 per US Gallon

Todd and I discussed how www.cngprices.com should display Canadian pricing, and since we Canadians also sell Gasoline in Liters, we both thought it would be best to display the price of CNG in price per liter as well. I hope this explanation helps.
