Clean Energy Fuels announced a notable expansion of its renewable natural gas (RNG) fueling infrastructure in Southern California with the inauguration of two new stations in San Bernardino and Perris. These stations aim to provide heavy-duty trucks and fleet vehicles with convenient access to RNG, a sustainable transportation fuel derived entirely from organic waste, which can reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Located near warehouse hubs and essential commercial transportation routes, the newly opened stations address the increasing demand for low carbon-intensity fuels in the heavy-duty trucking industry. Cummins' recent introduction of its X15N engine, the first 15-liter engine powered by RNG, has also contributed to the growing interest in emissions reduction technologies.
“These station openings come at an opportune time as the demand for RNG continues to grow. The RNG solution offers potential emissions reductions and provides fleets with an additional option for their operations. Clean Energy now has an expanded fueling network in the region,” said Chad Lindholm, senior vice president at Clean Energy.
The San Bernardino station, situated at 1110 E. Central Ave, covers 6.4 acres and features four fast-fill lanes for convenient fueling. Similarly, the Perris station, located at 19295 Harvill Ave, offers two fast-fill lanes across three acres, providing accessible access off the 215 freeway.
Clean Energy operates over 600 stations across the U.S. and Canada, strategically positioned to serve fleets involved in goods transportation. Additionally, the company is investing in RNG production at dairy farms across the U.S., contributing to emissions reductions from both the agriculture and transportation sectors.
