LPG

Part of the energy revolution currently underway in the United States is bogged down by the old chicken and egg dilemma. There is a need for liquid natural gas (LNG) filling stations but the cost cannot be justified because there are not enough semi’s running on LNG. On the other hand the cost of building these semis cannot be justified until there are more filling stations. There are 7,000 truck stops and it would cost one million dollars to install LNG pumps. This totals 7 billion which is about the amount spent on the solar projects that have gone bankrupted. This indicates to some that we have misplaced our priorities when it comes to energy policy. LNG is not only less expensive than diesel but it burns cleaner meaning fewer sulfates and nitrates. In addition we produce all the natural gas we need right here in the USA. It provides high paying jobs and reduces our dependency on foreign oil.
