The City of Glendale, California has awarded a 10-year contract to Clean Energy Fuels Corp. to build, operate and maintain a new large-scale public access compressed natural gas (CNG) station to support the City’s CNG vehicle fleets and serve surrounding communities. Once the City completes its recently announced program to replace all of its diesel-powered fleet vehicles with CNG vehicles over the next five years, it is anticipated that the CNG station will dispense more than 800,000 gallons of fuel annually.
The planned Clean Energy-owned facility is designed to serve a range of light, medium and heavy-duty vehicles, including public transit buses, municipal vehicles, refuse hauling trucks, taxis, shared-ride shuttle buses and passenger cars. The station, located near Bob Hope Airport, will serve more than 30 Beeline Transit buses and a growing fleet of residential refuse trucks operated by the City. It is also a strategic location for taxis that operate between the San Fernando Valley, including Bob Hope Airport, and downtown Los Angeles.
James Harger, Clean Energy’s Senior Vice President, said, “For many years the City of Glendale has been a dedicated user of clean-burning natural gas fuel, as evidenced by its extensive fleet of CNG-powered transit buses, refuse trucks, street sweepers and light-duty municipal vehicles.”
