Wisconsin Logistics Operator Invests in Its Own Bio-CNG Refueling Facility
(OPAL Fuels) OPAL Fuels LLC, a vertically integrated producer and distributor of renewable natural gas for heavy-duty truck fleets, announced a contract with Contract Transport Services (CTS) to sell 15 million gasoline gallon equivalents (GGE) of biomethane and build the station and related infrastructure at CTS’s facility in Green Bay, Wisconsin. TruStar Energy, an OPAL Fuels company, will manage construction and operation of the station.
“Right now, we have over 150 trucks running on public fuel. By contracting with OPAL Fuels to internalize our fueling infrastructure, the new renewable natural gas fuel and related infrastructure will save us time, money and significantly reduce our carbon emissions,” said Curt Reitz, President of Contract Transport Services. “Renewable natural gas is the best alternative fuel option on the market. We are proud to say we can deliver our customers their products safely, efficiently and sustainably with OPAL Fuels.”
CTS began its mission to reduce its carbon footprint in 2013, transitioning to cleaner fuel with the company’s first CNG truck. Today, CTS owns 103 NGVs. The company has partnered with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a SmartWay affiliate to help reduce GHG emissions and improve fuel efficiency.
“CTS’s move to internalize their fueling infrastructure and fuel their trucks with renewable natural gas is a smart move. A move that will reduce their carbon emissions by 132,000 tons,” said Adam Comora, Co-CEO of OPAL Fuels. READ MORE
