[Biodiesel In Utah] Fw: Park City Embraces Bio-Diesel Fuel

[Graydon Blair]

Frank,
  Any word of getting a biodiesel station in Davis County anytime soon?
  I saw someone posting on the trimart out near hooper in Weber County.
   
  I'd sure love something in Davis County though (and so would my truck).
   
  Keep on pushing it...it's exciting to see it grow!

Leave it to Park City to get their factual information incorrectly
themselves but nevertheless, pretty cool...

PRESS RELEASE
Park City Embraces Bio-Diesel Fuel



Park City Municipal Corporation as part of its continuing commitment
to becoming a sustainable mountain resort community will begin using
bio-diesel in all diesel powered vehicles in its fleet by June 30th. This
should result in both annual fuel cost savings and environmental benefits.

The general public will also have the ability to purchase bio-diesel
at the Park City CFN outlet by completing a credit application and obtaining
a CFN credit card.

In June 2005, Park City Transit began a bio-diesel (B-20) pilot
demonstration program with the Main Street trolley to evaluate whether using
bio-diesel adversely impacts maintenance costs, reliability or fuel
consumption. No fuel related maintenance or reliability problems have
occurred and fuel consumption has remained the same as when the trolley ran
on regular diesel fuel.

B-20 fuel (20% soybean or similar vegetable oil and 80% petroleum
diesel) can yield reductions in particulate, CO and Hydrocarbon emissions
but causes a slight increase in NOx emissions. Although not mandated in
Park City, B-20 fuel meets Energy Policy Act of 1992 (EPA) regulations,
passed by Congress to reduce our nation's dependence on imported petroleum. 

Major fuel suppliers have begun making commercial grade pre-blended
bio-diesel available locally in bulk deliveries making it more convenient to
service the City's fleet which consumes approximately 215,000 gallons of
diesel fuel per year; mostly in the transit buses. 

Until very recently bio-diesel had quality control problems and such
low sales volume that it lacked the economies of scale that large producers
and distributors can provide, resulting in bio-diesel being sold, if and
when available, at a premium to petroleum diesel. A combination of
increasing consumer demand, tax incentives,, and large increases in the cost
of the petroleum component of bio-diesel have resulted in a bio-diesel cost
of approximately $ .05 less per gallon than #2 diesel under current market
conditions.



For additional information on purchasing bio-diesel fuel in Park City
contact Eric Nesset at 615-5356.
