NEWPORT BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Clean
Energy Fuels Corp. (Nasdaq: CLNE) announced that it has signed
multiple fueling agreements with United States Postal Service
contract-carriers in Florida, New York, Oklahoma, and Texas, increasing
the total number of USPS carriers fueling with Clean Energy now to 15.
Signing new deals with Clean Energy is C. Blackburn Trucking Associates,
who will fuel four of their Class-8 heavy-duty
trucks at Clean Energy's John F. Kennedy International Airport
station. Additionally, G&P Trucking, based out of Springfield, Missouri,
will fuel at Clean Energy's compressed
natural gas (CNG) fueling station at the Will Roger's Airport in
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
Increasing the number of their trucks that use natural gas is Thunder
Ridge Transport, a 150-truck carrier servicing 13 states that is based
in Springfield, Missouri. They will fuel 20 new CNG trucks out of Clean
Energy's Dallas-Fort Worth Station.
St. Augustine, Florida-based Postal Fleet Services, one of the largest
USPS carriers, is also adding additional CNG trucks to its fleet fueling
in Texas
and Florida.
"The United States Postal Service takes our sustainability goals very
seriously. Our carriers live in the very same communities we serve, and
we continue to look for ways to reduce our impact on the environment.
Since 2005, we have increased the use of alternative fuels by 141%, and
we are encouraged that our contract-carriers are using alternative fuels
as well," said Bridget Rice, Manager, Surface Transportation CMC at USPS.
"Businesses that require goods to be transported, such as the USPS,
continue to demand cleaner fleets in their supply chain. And fleets
realize that by reducing their greenhouse
gas emissions as well as NOx by switching to natural gas, they not
only help the environment, but they're also winning more business," said
Ashley White, Head of Corporate Sustainability at Clean Energy.
