Clean Energy Fuels Corp. plans to expand its existing network of liquefied natural gas truck fueling stations in southern California.
While Clean Energy currently operates two LNG stations at the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, new or upgraded facilities are planned along truck routes in Los Angeles, Commerce, Industry, Fontana, Riverside, Tulare, Barstow, and Otay Mesa/San Diego.
"The development of the new station infrastructure is a direct response to the increased demand for natural gas fuel we have observed, as major trucking companies secure and deploy LNG-powered trucks at the Los Angeles and Long Beach ports and throughout the region," said Andrew Littlefair, Clean Energy president and CEO.
The southern California network will enable goods to be transported via clean-burning natural gas trucks within local urban areas and along regional goods-movement corridors. Trucks will be able to transport goods from the Los Angeles and Long Beach ports, deliver them to distribution centers, and take the goods directly to stores in local communities.
"This augmented LNG truck fueling capability plays a key role in the creation of a full-scale Southwest LNG truck-fueling corridor," Littlefair said. "We plan to connect this group of LNG fueling stations in Southern California to Northern California, Arizona, Nevada and Utah."
The company's two existing LNG stations were specifically designed by Clean Energy to support the goals of the San Pedro Bay Ports' Clean Air Action Plan and Clean Truck programs, which call for the retirement or conversion of old diesel trucks entering the ports in favor of new cleaner-burning and alternative-fueled trucks.
