Questar Opens CNG Station for Trucks in Kansas

On Thursday, Questar Fueling Company opened its newest CNG fueling station in Kansas City, Kansas. The public-access station, which is located along an important transportation corridor, will provide fast-fill CNG fueling for fleet operators with medium and heavy duty trucks as well as motorists who drive light duty NGVs. The new Kansas City CNG station offers six high-speed fueling lanes for trucks. The price for CNG is currently about $2 per equivalent gallon compared to about $3.65 per gallon of diesel fuel. Questar Fueling opened a similar CNG station in Topeka, Kansas, in April of this year and began fueling Class 8 trucks for Frito-Lay, Dart Transit and other area fleets. “This is the second CNG station Questar Fueling has built in Kansas this year,” said former Kansas Gov. Bill Graves, American Trucking Association president. “Thanks to them and other builders of CNG-fueling stations, the transportation sector is finding it easier to fill up with cleaner, safer and more economical natural gas.”
