SAN FRANCISCO, CA – PG&E got a nod from the US Environmental Protection Agency for its clean natural gas vehicle fleet, winning the Environmental Achievement Award for its partnership with Quality Terminal Services (QTS) and CleanAir Transport, according to a PG&E press release. The successful efforts are believed to have displaced as many as 5,000 gallons of diesel fuel. The partnership, which began in 2005, replaces aging diesel vehicles with cleaner burning natural-gas vehicles.
Bob Howard, PG&E’s vice president of gas transmission and distribution reacted to the announcement, “Our partnership with QTS and CleanAir Transport reflects PG&E’s broad-based commitment to both the environment and the local communities we serve...We are honored by the EPA’s acknowledgment today and look forward to continuing to develop clean-air transportation technologies that benefit our customers.”
The fleet includes 11 liquefied natural gas (LNG) trucks in use at the port in addition to a first-of-its-kind compressed natural gas (CNG) port shuttle truck loaned to CleanAir Transport by PG&E, which is utilized for fixed route use between the shipping terminals and the railroad yards.
