GE launched its “CNG In A Box” system this week, to expand fueling options for vehicles that run on compressed natural gas, the company has announced.

GE touts the all-in-one refueling system, developed in partnership with Chesapeake Energy affiliatePeake Fuel Solutions, as a plug-and-play solution that makes it quick and easy for retailers to expand their fuel selection.

At least 250 CNG In A Box systems will be distributed beginning this fall, the companies said.

“The CNG In A Box system is a unique fueling solution that brings together some of the best innovation from across GE to help fleet owners and everyday drivers realize the benefits of cleaner burning, abundant, more affordable natural gas,” said Mike Hosford, general manager of unconventional resources for GE Oil & Gas, in a written statement.

CNG In A Box comes in an 8-foot-by-20-foot container, according to GE. The system compresses natural gas, delivered via pipeline, onsite and dispenses the fuel using a pump similar to that used at a traditional gasoline station.

The system was debuted Monday at the National Association of Convenience Stores Show in Las Vegas and is being marketed for use at traditional fueling stations and at industrial locations.

The push for natural gas as a transportation fuel has been hindered by a lack of infrastructure and fueling stations for cars and trucks that run on compressed natural gas. GE says using compressed natural gas can save vehicle fleet operators about 40 percent in fuel costs, compared to gasoline.
