Garfield Clean Energy, a nonprofit group that comprises nine local governments in Garfield County, Colo., is pushing for closer collaboration among state clean energy programs to expand the use of compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicles.
According to a report in the Glenwood Springs Post Independent, Garfield Clean Energy's Mike Ogburn spoke in front of the Garfield Board of County Commissioners earlier this week and suggested that Garfield County work with Weld County – which is currently engaged in its own efforts to build CNG refueling stations – to develop intrastate CNG infrastructure.
The article notes that Garfield County Commissioner Mike Samson is ‘very interested’ in pursuing such a partnership, which could also include the city of Grand Junction and Mesa County.
