[Gas station manager Anan] noted that his company’s other stations in places like Staten Island are suffering from a different problem: they have gas but no power. The blackout across New York City and New Jersey is partially to blame for the gas shortage. The executive director of the New Jersey Gasoline, Convenience, Automotive Association explained that a lack of power is keeping much of the gasoline stored along the New Jersey Turnpike from being distributed to stations. “They can’t get that gasoline into the delivery trucks without power,” he told CNBC.
