Blu
Blu.
Good. Clean. Fuel. This is the motto for the natural energy company, "Blu". Blu builds the LNG infrastructure for natural gas trucks. It is centered in Salt Lake City Utah but is continually growing. Blu contains natural gas stations in areas spanning across the United States which include: Atlanta Georgia, Idaho Falls Idaho, St. George Utah and multiple others. It also has various stations undergoing construction across America. It focuses on converting many large corporations such as "UPS" to switch their vehicles from running off of petroleum gas to natural gas. Not only is it cheaper than petroleum fuel it also is healthier for the environment and there is unlimited amounts of natural gas within the United States.
Richard Peterson
the Executive Vice President of the company, “Blu” said in his presentation that America is the Saudi Arabia of natural gas. America could be independent on powering natural gas vehicles just by the immense amounts of natural resources that are to be utilized within America. Mr. Peterson discussed many positives to natural gas. He worked for the fuel company Flying J for 20 years. During his time with this company he learned a lot about fuel. He discovered regular fuel is not only harsh on the environment, it is also expensive and is interconnected with relations with foreign countries that are not guaranteed to be reliable right now let alone in the future. They are partners with ENN, a company centered in China that is the main leader in natural gas.
Positivity
The main point that Mr. Peterson expressed was to be positive. Not only is it good to be positive but it helps with acquiring and retaining a job. Without a positive attitude, Mr. Peterson stated that you will not even be considered for a place within their company. There is no excuse to have a negative attitude. We live in a day and age where our opportunities are unlimited. Technology is constantly developing. Our connection with foreign countries is unlimited, which creates an extremely large amount of opportunities to continually grown and achieve personal dreams. Another factor that positivity goes into account for is simply being compared to other workers. The Chinese work extremely long hours and not only that but they work 7 days a week. The Chinese give their all to their job and they work with a positive attitude. Mr. Peterson shared that he has never heard one complaint out of a Chinese worker. All he ever hears is gratitude for the fact that they have a job and can be a part of the company. This helps too because with such a forward thinking company that is built upon the hope to better the world needs to be uplifted and maintained by positive thinking people. There is just too many opportunities to be negative. I completely agree with everything Mr. Peterson said about this. If you even compare the opportunities you have today to the opportunities your grandparents had, the difference is vast. Opportunities are continually growing and we are literally living in one of the best eras to take advantage of these.
ENN
“Blu” cannot reach its goal without the help of one of the world’s leading “green” companies. This company that “Blu” partners with is exactly that. It is the top leading green company in the world. This company is, “ENN”. “ENN” is a China based company. Its motto is to promote, “Innovative clean energy”. It has partnered with numerous companies to achieve the goal of creating a greener world through the use of clean energy. ENN is mainly focused on achieving a greener future by replacing regular gas vehicles with natural gas vehicles. They do this to achieve a low-carbon lifestyle all across the world and create harmony between the environment and energy technology.
ENN Goals
Ultimately the goal of ENN is to create harmony between the environment and energy technology. As stated by the Board Chairman of ENN Energy, Wang Yusuo, ENN hopes to achieve this harmony through a new energy model. It will personally contribute to building up this new energy model so that the world will change its dependence from unclean energy to new green energy methods
