The Coolest Fueling Station Ever
These are pictures I took of the Sequential Biofuels Station in Eugene, OR. Isn't it the nicest place to fuel up you've ever seen? Here are a few key features:
* Two grades of Ethanol fuel: E20 and E85 (the latter can only be used in so-called flex-fuel vehicles);
* Two grades of Biodiesel fuel: B5, B 20, and B99.9 (At least o.o1% petro diesel is required for a federal tax credit!);
* A green roof (or should I say green garden!);
* Bioswales to collect rainwater and allow it to seep back into local streams, naturally cleansed by on-site vegetation; and
* It is a brownfield site, so there is active remediation of contaminated groundwater underneath - they are cleaning up someone else's mess!
