Renewed Interest - Abundant Resource
12
New markets are
needed for Canada’s
natural gas
Options:
1. Power generation
2. Export to Asia
3. Transportation
Modest growth forecast
for natural gas demand
in traditional markets
Renewed Interest - Lower Cost Energy

(New Flyer and Nova) offer
factory-built natural gas transit
buses
HSR Fleet Profile (1)
20
• HSR 35 CNG transit buses in fleet of 221 buses with an older
CNG refueling station
• 1st in the world to use CNG buses; as of 2004, decision was
made to return to diesel due to operating costs associated with
earlier generation CNG buses
• But with diesel rising, “from $.75/litre to > $1.00/litre since
2009”, HSR did an in-depth analysis:
 Fuel costs
 Maintenance & other costs
• Result was a recommendation to return to CNG transit bus use
with a major transformation of the fleet over the next 7 years

3,600 psi refueling at public
station – harmonized with U.S.
 Updated CSA B109 harmonizes
vehicle impact loading with U.S.
• LNG
 LNG permanent and mobile
refueling being added to CSA
Z276 Annex D
 Harmonized North American
component standards work has
begun
28
System Improvements - Gas-Safe Facilities
29
• Technical Guideline
available from CNGVA
• Industry to fund
development of CSA
B401 to create new
gas-safe facility code
for Canada
• Expect new code to be
available mid- 2016
System Improvements - Training
30
• Competency-based
training coming to
market in Canada
• Technical courses will
include CNG & LNG

Editor's Notes

  1. The reason for the price de-coupling is this – SUPPLY. We have more than 100 years supply of natural gas at current demand levels and so do the Americans all due to shale gas – able to access cost effectively. They don’t need as much of our gas and, as homes and equipment get more effiicient, we are all using less natural gas too. This creates a big dilemma if you are a producer of natural gas – and Canada is the world’s 3rd largest after the US which is #1 and Russia which is #2
  2. WHY natural gas? Natural gas and oil used to track each other in terms of price Experts now believe that the two commodities have de-coupled and natural gas now trades at a very significant discount to oi
