What do transit agencies, refuse companies, food & beverage distributors, municipal governments, private trucking firms, airport shuttle services, courier services, private contractors, school districts, and utility companies have in common? They all can lower their fuel costs by 30-50% by transitioning their fleet to vehicles powered by natural gas!
“Compelling Case for NGVs” workshops are designed for public and private fleet operators and policy-makers and cover the several key topics related to the use of natural gas in fleets.
