Vermont Gas Systems and NG Advantage LLC have officially turned on Vermont’s first ‘gas island’ on Exchange Street in Middlebury. This island consists of an offloading station and a small pipeline network that will connect the station to Agri-Mark’s Middlebury plant, Middlebury College, and several other large customers.
Until the Addison Rutland Natural Gas Project pipeline extension reaches Middlebury, natural gas will be delivered to the local network by NG Advantage LLC using its high-tech carbon fibre trailers. Once the Vermont Gas Systems pipeline reaches Middlebury, NG Advantage will move its offloading station and trucks to other customer sites.

“The ‘gas island’ partnership with NG Advantage is one example of the innovative approach we are using to bring this clean, safe, and affordable option to more customers,” said Tom Murray, Director of Sales and Marketing at Vermont Gas Systems. “We are excited to welcome Agri-Mark and Middlebury College as our newest customers and we look forward to expanding our service in Middlebury.”

The ‘gas island’ system will provide the same natural gas used by Vermont Gas Systems to serve its current customer base approaching 50 000 homes and businesses in Chittenden and Franklin counties. Natural gas is less expensive and cleaner than conventional heating fuels now used in Addison County and elsewhere around Vermont.

We could get a favorable bump with the "tax extenders" vote this week that would re-instate the VETC before Congress takes off.

If passed we could see a $ 30 mil windfall in the 4th quarter.
