Piedmont Natural Gas and The Spinx Company opened Anderson’s first public compressed natural gas refueling station at 1207 SC Highway 28 Bypass.
The station is Piedmont’s third public refueling facility in South Carolina and its first station located at an existing convenience store, the company revealed in a statement.
Vehicles fueled by CNG release significantly lower levels of carbon dioxide than gasoline or diesel vehicles, and require less maintenance.
With the opening of the Anderson station, Piedmont now operates 10 public CNG refueling stations throughout North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee.
Piedmont also is working with corporate fleet owners and municipalities to install dedicated CNG refueling facilities at their locations. In addition, Piedmont has converted approximately one-third of its own corporate fleet to vehicles that run on CNG.
