“The completion of these two LCNG fueling stations is a critical milestone demonstrating Ryder’s commitment to the deployment of alternative fuel vehicles,” stated Robert Sanchez, Chairman and CEO for Ryder. “Our business model puts us in a unique position to enable more fleets to convert to natural gas and realize the benefits of this cost-effective, clean, and domestic energy source. We are proud to make this investment in fueling infrastructure, which will further support the wider adoption of NGVs for commercial transportation.”
Each fueling location has three pumps – two of CNG and one of LNG. The company’s contractual customers will be able to access the LNG and CNG pump areas of Ryder’s facilities specifically configured for large commercial vehicles. Passenger vehicles and light duty trucks will also be able to access CNG pumps in a separate area easily accessible to the general public.
Ryder has deployed more than 300 natural gas vehicles into the fleets of more than 40 customers in California, Michigan, Arizona, and Louisiana.
