Surrey City Council’s ambitious plan to require all new gas stations must provide alt

[Markham]

Hey guys

This is a contentious issue - or should be. There is little or no demand for hydrogen, CNG or electricity recharging stations, so why should new gas stations be required to build at least one?

I've got calls out for interviews on this story, will post a follow up tomorrow or Friday.

The alternative fuel source can include electric vehicle recharging, compressed natural gas or hydrogen, along with the traditional fuels propane, diesel and gasoline.

One regular outdoor plug with a meter on it should do the trick

Hopefully trying to create more demand for say, hydrogen, but what hydrogen fuel cell cars are actually available to purchase here?

Wow, this has STUPID written all over it. Why you ask?
1) Anyone who thinks hydrogen is a "green" fuel is an idiot. Where exactly do people like this mayor think hydrogen comes from? The air? Ha!
2) As far as I can see, only the city actually has the cars that need these services. They should pay to fuel their own useless research.

I think CNG is a good step

I'd be down for CNG car or truck.
