( Clean Energy Fuels Corp/Biomass Magazine) Clean Energy Fuels Corp. announced that Brookhaven, New York, a municipality that moved away from diesel to compressed natural gas (CNG) 10 years ago, has extended Clean Energy’s contract for another five years. Brookhaven is taking its sustainability efforts to a new level by becoming Clean Energy’s first customer in New York to move to Redeem renewable natural gas (RNG), the cleanest fueling option available, with an expected volume of 550,000 gasoline gallon equivalents (GGEs) annually to power 80 new refuse and recycling trucks. Clean Energy began its relationship with the Long Island community in 2008 when it designed, built, and began operating the natural gas truck fueling station that serves Brookhaven, one of the most densely populated areas in the country.

Clean Energy has inked a multi-year contract to supply Redeem to the North County Transit District, which operates public transit service throughout North San Diego County. The agency has 163 buses, two CNG fueling stations, and uses approximately 1.5 million GGEs annually.

“Cities are seeking ways to improve the environmental impact of their vehicles and shield themselves from volatile diesel prices,” said Chad Lindholm, vice president, Clean Energy. “RNG, the cleanest fuel available today, is the logical choice of municipal fleets from a variety of geographic regions and markets.” READ MORE
