TruStar Energy said that it has opened a company-branded public CNG fueling station in Houston, Texas.
The company’s new station will help facilitate the continued growth of natural gas as a transportation fuel in the Texas market. Recent data from the Texas Comptroller’s office shows that Texas fleet operators are purchasing natural gas in record numbers with sales of the fuel increasing 78% over FY 2014, TruStar said in its statement.
TruStar Energy currently is constructing dozens of CNG stations across the country. The company has opened its first company-branded public fueling station in Orlando in July, a second station in Tulsa, Oklahoma earlier this month and now Houston.
The new Houston TruStar Energy CNG station has two traffic lanes and two fast-fill fueling pumps. The station is supplied by natural gas from Apache Corporation.
