Clean Energy’s Newest Public Access CNG
Fueling Station is Now Open in Oakland, CA
Designed, built and maintained by Clean Energy (Nasdaq: CLNE), the newest CNG public access fuel station in Oakland, CA provides 24/7 access to CNG fuel for vehicles that range from consumer autos, fleet cars, taxis and shuttle vans to transit buses and refuse trucks.
The new downtown Oakland CNG station – the third serving the Oakland area — is located on land donated by the adjacent Port of Oakland. Clean Energy public access CNG stations are also available near Oakland International Airport and the Coliseum.
“Oakland Goes Natural” dedication ceremonies, staged at the new station on July 26, 2007, were hosted by District 3 Oakland City Council Member Nancy Nadel and included guest speakers representing the partner organizations who collaborated on this major clean air project.
Andrew Littlefair, Clean Energy President and CEO, said, “We are delighted to bring this economical and environmentally-friendly fueling service to West Oakland area motorists. The City of Oakland deserves the highest praise for their demonstrated commitment to helping ensure a healthy environment for its citizens, and Clean Energy is very proud to play a continuing role in that effort.”
The City of Oakland secured grants from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District and the California Energy Commission to offset the cost of CNG station construction.
Clean Energy (Nasdaq: CLNE) is the leading provider of natural gas (CNG and LNG) for transportation in North America. It has a broad customer base in the refuse, transit, shuttle, taxi, trucking, airport and municipal fleet markets with more than 13,000 natural gas vehicles fueling at strategic locations across the United States and Canada. |
