Questions people ask before their first fill

How many CNG stations are there in the United States?

As of October 25, 2026, the DOE Alternative Fuels Data Center lists 674 compressed natural gas stations that are open to the public, in 42 states. Another 664 or so are private fleet-only sites (transit yards, refuse depots, utility garages) that do not sell to drivers. This site counts only public, open stations and refreshes the number every week; the directory shows how it breaks down by state.

Can I put CNG in a regular gasoline car?

No. CNG is stored at 3,600 psi and needs a dedicated tank, regulator and fuel system. Only a factory natural gas vehicle, such as the Honda Civic GX, or a vehicle with an EPA- or CARB-certified conversion can fill at a CNG station. See natural gas vehicles for what has been sold in the U.S.

What is the difference between quick-fill and time-fill?

Quick-fill stations hold gas in high-pressure storage and fill a vehicle in a few minutes, like a gasoline pump. Time-fill stations connect a parked vehicle directly to a compressor for several hours, usually overnight, and are built for fleets that live on site. Almost every public station is quick-fill; a few offer both, and the badge on each listing tells you which. The fueling guide walks through the process.

Is CNG cheaper than gasoline?

Usually. CNG is sold by the gasoline gallon equivalent (GGE), and the DOE's quarterly Alternative Fuel Price Report has put it below gasoline and diesel on an energy basis in nearly every report for more than a decade. How much you save depends on your state and station. The CNG price guide has the latest dated figures and the arithmetic per mile.

Do CNG stations take regular credit cards?

Most public stations take Visa and Mastercard, and many also take fleet cards such as WEX, Voyager, Comdata, Fuelman and EFS. A small number of utility- or fleet-hosted sites take only their own network card. Each listing on this site shows the cards in the DOE record, and the networks page summarizes them by operator.

Why is a station I know about missing from the map?

Three common reasons: it is a private fleet site that does not sell to the public, DOE lists it as planned or temporarily unavailable, or it has not been reported to the Alternative Fuels Data Center. Private, planned and unavailable stations are left out of every count here on purpose; the methodology page explains the rules and how to report a station to AFDC.
