  Natural Gas in East Tennessee There are about 4 fleets that use natural gas in East Tennessee, with most of them based in Sevier County (see list at right). However, the largest user is KUB. KUB has over 70 AFVs that they run on CNG (compressed natural gas), with about ten of those being new additions this year.
| In Sevier County, the use of CNG has come to be in the last two years. It began when Pigeon Forge purchased two NGVs in 2002, and continued with Gatlinburg's purchase of three dedicated CNG police cruisers last year. Also in 2003, Sevierville got on-board by purchasing several CNG F-150s. Other than recognizing the need to move to cleaner vehicles, the one other common undercurrent to their efforts has been the involvement of Sevier County Utility District. The utility has paid for and installed the infrastructure for each of these city's projects, and is working to be a part of a multi-alt-fuel station that Sevierville is looking to build in the next year. All of these NGV owners are members of the ETCFC.
