CNG Gas Station Price Sign - Utah

A CNG station (Compressed Natural Gas station) is a facility where compressed natural gas (CNG) is stored, distributed, and dispensed to vehicles that run on CNG. CNG is natural gas that has been compressed to a high pressure (typically around 3,000–3,600 psi) to reduce its volume, making it suitable for use in vehicles as an alternative to gasoline or diesel.

CNG is considered a cleaner fuel compared to gasoline and diesel, producing lower levels of carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and particulate matter.

CNG stations are often located in urban areas, near highways, or in industrial regions, providing accessible refueling points for vehicles running on compressed natural gas.
