Two New State-of-the-Art Stations to Provide
Access for Fleets to Fuel with Ultra-Clean Renewable Natural
Gas
Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (NASDAQ: CLNE) today announced it has
significantly increased its renewable natural gas (RNG) fueling
footprint in Southern California with the opening of two additional
stations in San Bernadino and Perris. These stations give
heavy-duty trucks and other fleet vehicles convenient access to
RNG, a low carbon-intensity transportation fuel made entirely of
organic waste which dramatically reduces greenhouse gas
emissions.

Strategically located near warehouse hubs and key commercial
transportation corridors, the addition of these stations come at a
pivotal time in the heavy-duty trucking industry as fleets seek
solutions to reduce their carbon emissions and decarbonize their
operations. In addition to Clean Energy’s expanding fueling
infrastructure around the country, Cummins recently introduced its
X15N engine, the first 15-liter engine powered by RNG to hit the
market. The Cummins X15N has been road-tested by UPS, Walmart,
Knight Swift, and other demanding heavy-duty truck fleets to
positive reviews. The new engine, which has similar power and
torque to its diesel counterpart, can reduce carbon emissions by
over 300% and NOx emissions by 90%.
“These station openings come at an opportune time as the demand
for RNG continues to grow now that the highly anticipated Cummins’
X15N is available. There’s a growing realization that the other
much-hyped technologies aren’t living up to their promises of
availability, fueling infrastructure or cost of ownership. The RNG
solution is here and now, providing fleets with incredible
emissions reductions affordably. Clean Energy now has an even more
accessible and reliable fueling network from the Ports of Long
Beach and LA to the Inland Empire,” said Chad Lindholm, senior vice
president at Clean Energy.
The San Bernadino station, located at 1110 E. Central Ave, San
Bernardino, CA 92408, covers 6.4 acres near the 215 and I-10
freeways, and includes four fast-fill lanes for easy in-and-out
fueling.
The address of the Perris station is 19295 Harvill Ave, Perris,
CA 92570, which is conveniently located off the 215 freeway. It is
equipped with two fast-fill lanes and the site covers three
acres.
Clean Energy operates over 600 stations across the U.S. and
Canada, 200 of which have tractor-trailer access, located in the
most strategic locations for those fleets involved in the movement
of goods to easily access RNG.
Clean Energy is also investing hundreds of millions of dollars
in the production of RNG at dairy farms in the U.S. to ensure a
steady supply or low-carbon RNG. Agriculture accounts for nearly
10% of U.S. greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and the transportation
sector accounts for another 28%, according to the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency. Capturing methane from farm waste
lowers these emissions. RNG, produced by that captured methane and
used as a transportation fuel, significantly lowers GHG emissions
on a lifecycle basis when compared to diesel. This allows RNG to be
one of the only transportation fuels to receive a negative
carbon-intensity score based on the reduction of emissions at the
source and at the vehicle.
About Clean Energy
Clean Energy Fuels Corp. is the country’s largest provider of
the cleanest fuel for the transportation market. Our mission is to
decarbonize transportation through the development and delivery of
renewable natural gas (RNG), a sustainable fuel derived by
capturing methane from organic waste. Clean Energy allows thousands
of vehicles, from airport shuttles to city buses to waste and
heavy-duty trucks, to reduce their amount of climate-harming
greenhouse gas. We operate a vast network of fueling stations
across the U.S. and Canada as well as RNG production facilities at
dairy farms. Visit www.cleanenergyfuels.com and follow
