SuperShuttle
Clean Energy Fuels Corp., a provider of natural gas (CNG and LNG) for transportation in North America, has contracted with Veolia-owned SuperShuttle International, a shared-ride ground transportation operator, to provide compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling services to SuperShuttle vans operating at major US airports nationwide. As part of the initial deployment, SuperShuttle ordered 40 new CNG vans for San Francisco International Airport through BAF, Clean Energy’s subsidiary. The new fleet will fuel at Clean Energy’s San Francisco International Airport (SFO) station and its growing Bay Area network.
Under the terms of the new five-year fuel agreement, SuperShuttle vans will fuel up at existing and future public access Clean Energy CNG stations strategically located at airports including Dallas/Fort Worth, Denver, New York City, Phoenix and, in California, Los Angeles, Burbank, Ontario, Orange County, San Francisco and San Diego.
“Allied airport service providers like SuperShuttle are actively transitioning their fleets to natural gas fuel,” said James Harger, Chief Marketing Officer, Clean Energy, adding that SuperShuttle first deployed natural gas shared-ride ground transportation vans in the mid-1990s.
Costing less than diesel or gasoline, natural gas fuel produces up to 30% less greenhouse gas emissions in light-duty vehicles, and up to 23%-percent lower greenhouse gas emissions in medium to heavy-duty applications. Department of Energy reports estimate that 98% of the natural gas consumed in the U.S. is sourced in the U.S. and Canada.
