Agility Fuel Solutions has introduced Blue iQ, its newest natural gas fuel product, which uses proprietary technology developed through Agility’s partnership with Cummins to give natural gas vehicles the same tools diesel trucks use to optimize fuel consumption and maximize uptime. “It allows natural gas vehicles to operate on a level playing field with diesel, but with lower fuel costs, quieter engines, and less emissions,” said Kathleen Ligocki, CEO, Agility Fuel Solutions.
All fuel system manufacturers have access to on-board diagnostic data, but only Blue iQ takes it further by integrating with Cummins Connected Diagnostics™, INSITE™ service tool, and QuickServe® support to connect vehicles, drivers, managers, and technicians for real-time management, diagnostics, and service. In addition, Blue iQ is the only tool that has access to Cummins proprietary engine data. Its Smart Gauge dashboard has Vehicle Range Monitor to determine how far drivers can go with the gas on board, EcoMode to help avoid unplanned refueling at low fuel levels, and Limp Home Mode to get drivers safely out of traffic at extremely low fuel levels.
Converting diesel fleets to natural gas vehicles has proven successful. Agility’s largest refuse customer has found that for every diesel truck replaced with natural gas, greenhouse gases are reduced by 22 metric tons per year or a 21% reduction per truck. It also cuts nitrogen oxide by up to 50%.
Agility values its ongoing collaboration with Cummins and is proud to be the first fuel solutions provider to level the diesel-natural-gas playing field. Blue iQ sets another industry standard and exemplifies Agility’s dedication to helping companies reduce costs.
