Salt Lake City – Troy Anderson was at the gas pump and couldn’t have been happier, filling up at a rate of $5 per tank.
Anderson was paying 63.8 cents per gallon equivalent for compressed natural gas, making Utah a hot market for vehicles that run on the fuel.
It’s the country’s cheapest rate for compressed gas, according to the Natural Gas Vehicle Coalition, and far less than the $3.56 national average price for a gallon of gasoline.
“I’m totally celebrating,” crowed Anderson, a 44-year-old social worker, who picked up a used Honda Civic GX two months ago. “This is the greatest thing. I can’t believe more people aren’t talking about it. This is practically free.”
Personal ownership of natural gas-fueled vehicles in Utah soared

Back on January 28th, I posted some comments about how Natural Gas was ready for a big move up and so far that forecast has been correct.
If you look at the above chart you will see a symmetrical triangle. Today Natural gas closed outside of the triangle which tells me that we may see another leg up. As always, we'll see what happens.

From The Economic TimesGAIL (India) is the country's largest natural gas company with annual revenue of around Rs 17,000 crore and market capitalisation (m-cap ) of around Rs 35,600 crore. The company owns and operates the largest natural gas pipeline network in India and handles over 75% of the total gas transported in the country. GAIL is investing heavily to lay more pipelines to widen its reach, and will be a major beneficiary of the likely jump in domestic production of natural gas. Gas production in India is likely to double in the next couple of years, which may boost GAIL’s gas transportation business. Investors can take exposure in GAIL with a two-year horizon.Click for complete story

There are several ways to reduce electricity and natural gas expenses. Air conditioning is an expensive luxury in Texas. First, shop around for a low price per kilowatt hour. If you live in the Dallas/Fort Worth area check out Power to Choose. Several electricity companies are listed. Determine if locking into one year contract is cheaper and avoid monthly fees. Buy a programmable thermostat to control temperature during the workday. Or employ an extreme tactic don't run the air conditioner at all! A crazy thought in Texas! Since the winters are mild in Texas avoid using the heater and sleep in layers of clothing and thick blankets. Better yet, buy a space heater and shut doors to keep the room of interest warm. Go to places with "free" air conditioning and heating during weekends...malls, library, etc. Also, avoid running the dishwasher and taking a hot shower simultaneously. Also, reduce your electricity and water bill by running the dishwasher, washer, and dryer when it's full. Or
Here’s a little more detail on the factors that effect natural gas prices.WeatherThe demand for natural gas usually peaks sometime between November and March. This of course depends on how cold the temperature gets as natural gas is the main input for heating North American homes. Likewise, the demand for natural gas increases in the summer when everyone starts turning on their air conditioners. The price of natural gas is also influenced by catastrophic weather events ie- hurricanes. If you’ve ever watched your local weather forecast you know that the weather can’t be accurately predicted (especially the long term forecast) so although we know that weather affects the price of natural gas we can’t predict when. However, it is safe to assume that at some point there will be either a vicious hot/cold snap or major hurricane and gas prices will spike (which is when they should be dumped)DemographicsWell this one is obvious...the more people that need to heat/cool their house the
I have been recently doing some research and speaking with a mining engineer friend of mine about natural gas and its prospects as an investment going forward. I’m in the process of developing a general strategy for investing in natural gas. As many of you probably know natural gas prices have been depressed while oil and other resources have been enjoying a boom. This point is be painfully clear if you are one of the many investors that have a gas stock or two tucked away in your portfolio…as many of them have literally been cut in half ie – CMT, GZ, GNY Now it’s not all bad news. The good news is that because natural gas prices are so low many companies have either greatly reduced (or stopped) their drilling levels. Despite this fact there has been no movement in gas prices, why? Well the reason is simple we still have a ton of the stuff in reserve so there hasn’t been any pressures on the supply side…yet…but what happens when those reserves start to diminish? Well the

Concerns over the 2007 hurricane season faded before forecasts of a robust winter heating season. Natural gas stocks lead energy gains Reports of the presence of the first La Nina weather pattern in nearly seven years popped up on investors' radar screens. If a cold winter in the Northeast takes place as a result of the weather pattern, natural gas prices could rise. La Nina winters are typically milder than normal but may also include harsher cold snaps. AccuWeather.com said the Pacific Northwest, western Canada and parts of the Northern Rockies tend to be colder than average. The Amex Natural Gas Index jumped nearly 1.7% to close at 528.6 points. Component El Paso Corp. (EP:17.40, +0.43, +2.5%) topped percentage gainers, up 2.5% to $17.40 a share, Apache Corp.

The Tamil Nadu Electricity Board's new 95 MW natural gas-based power plant at Vazhathur near here would become operational by November, official sources said here on Wednesday. The work for the new power plant, adjacent to the existing 100 MW natural gas power plant, began recently, they said. According to Board officials, the Rs 382-crore plant would use 4.38 lakh cubic metres of natural gas which would be supplied by the Gas Authority of India Ltd (GAIL). An agreement in this regard has been signed with GAIL. The existing 100 MW plant, situated in a 43 acre site, was using 4.50 lakh cubic metres of gas. It had sought the state government's permission to draw 550 cubic metres of water a day. According to Superintending Engineer Ganapathy Sankaran, the new plant was part of the expansion plans of the existing one. He said 15,000 to 20,000 litres of water would be drawn from a depth of 1,000 feet. India Economic Times Advertise on The ENERGY DATA WAREHOUSEwww.BajaeNergyBLOG.com
