»  Energy transitions are enormously difficult »  Natural gas is emerging as the first significant new transportation fuel in

over half a century

Driving a Shift to Natural Gas as a Transportation Fuel

ENERGY • Gas exploration & production • Distribution & utilities • Fuel station owners/operators • Renewable fuels

TECHNOLOGY • Market-spanning experience • Expansive IP portfolio • Capital light business models

TRANSPORTATION • Engine & vehicle OEMs • Fleet operators • Shippers, transportation users • Consumers

»  In 1950 diesel powered trucks cost more and were heavier than gasoline trucks, yet the market shifted 100% to diesel within 2 decades. Why?

»  A new paradigm of high productivity with low operating costs meant fleets needed to make the change or go out of business.

»  The same 100% shift happened a decade earlier in locomotives; steam to diesel.

We Have Seen A Complete Market Shift Before. Will It Happen Again?
