Filamar Energy Services, a full-service energy logistics provider based in Houston, signed an agreement with Clean Energy for an anticipated 4.2 million gallons of CNG to power a fleet of 50 heavy-duty trucks. These will be supported by a new filling station in Hennessey, OK to be built by Clean Energy.
“Our carbon-neutral logistics service will support customers who want to further decrease their environmental footprint,” said Filamar CEO Lambert Arceneaux. “In addition to CNG’s certain environmental benefits, it also makes Filamar a more efficient transportation provider by lowering fuel costs making our business and the industry as a whole more efficient.”
An early adopter of clean transportation, Denver International Airport (DEN) has contracted with Clean Energy to upgrade five fueling facilities that will power 95 natural gas vehicles with an anticipated 5 million gallons of biomethane. The new stations are expected to be completed later in 2023. The expanded availability of renewable natural gas at the airport will accommodate additional low-carbon airport transportation, such as rental car firms and air freight operators.
“DEN’s continued investment in renewable natural gas-fueled vehicles and fueling infrastructure will enable airport operators to lower their motor fuel costs while the airport quickly achieves cleaner air and further decarbonizes its operational footprint., said Daniel Gage, president, NGVAmerica.
