Amp Americas opened its new public-access Amp CNG fueling station in Buda, Texas, with US Foods serving as the station’s anchor fleet.
The station is Buda’s first compressed natural gas fueling station and the company’s eighth in the state of Texas. The Amp CNG ultra-fast-fill CNG station is now open to the public and takes all major credit and fleet cards. The station is already fueling US Foods’ Buda-based fleet of 50 CNG trucks.
