Terasen’s New CNG Vehicle Program To Include Forklift Conversions

November 18, 2008

Canada, Surrey, BC

Terasen Gas today announced a Compressed Natural Gas Vehicle Program (CNGV) to promote clean, efficient natural gas vehicles as an energy alternative in B.C.’s transportation sector. The first project under the CNGV program, involving Terasen Gas, Euro Asia Transload and FuelMaker, will see the conversion of 100 forklifts from propane to natural gas. The approx. $400,000 (USD) project includes the extension of the Terasen Gas system to deliver natural gas to a newly installed FuelMaker Corp. compressions system at Euro Asia Transload’s Richmond and Burnaby warehouses and the installation of a FuelMaker Corp. compression system to fuel each forklift.

“In the first three weeks of our [forklift] project we’ve noticed that our machines run quieter and more efficiently, and our warehouse’s indoor air quality has improved,” said Coleman Tokei, Vice President, Marketing and Sales, Euro Asia Transload.

Under the new CNGV program, Terasen Gas has committed to support local businesses through ongoing investment in fuel conversion projects and by “bringing home” to B.C. the innovation in natural gas engine technology that businesses are already exporting to other countries.

“Our provincial government has taken a leadership position in setting greenhouse gas reduction targets, and now the business sector is stepping in with economic and effective solutions to realize those objectives,” said Randy Jespersen, President and CEO, Terasen Inc.
