In response, we have significantly augmented our supplies of Redeem RNG and expect to provide ever-increasing volumes of the clean, sustainable fuel to our customers.\u201d\n<\/p>\n \nClean Energy\u2019s Redeem was the first commercially available RNG vehicle fuel<\/a>, derived from capturing the biogenic methane produced by the decomposition of organic waste from dairies, landfills, and wastewater treatment plants. Redeem reduces climate-harming greenhouse gas emissions by at least 70 percent, and even up to 300 percent depending on the source of the RNG, making it a negative carbon fuel.\n<\/p>\n Food Express<\/b><\/p>\n \nSpecializing in the transportation of food grade dry bulk commodities in the Western U.S., Food Express, Inc., based in Arcadia, CA has contracted Clean Energy to build a station in Maywood, CA that will deliver an estimated 4.7 million gallons of Redeem for its fleet of 60 RNG trucks. The deal also includes an operations and maintenance agreement for the station, which is expected to be completed by mid-2021.\n<\/p>\n \n\u201cWe\u2019re pleased to work with Clean Energy on construction of a new fast fill station in Maywood, California,\u201d said Food Express President Kevin Keeney. \u201cBuilding a station<\/a> that is dedicated to our fleet will provide more seamless access to ultra-low-carbon RNG and will further our company\u2019s sustainable transportation goals.\u201d\n<\/p>\n Adopt-A-Port<\/b><\/p>\n \nPacific Green Trucking, Inc., which operates drayage vehicles in the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, is adding 39 new RNG trucks to its fleet through the Chevron and Clean Energy partnership Adopt-A-Port program. In migrating from diesel fuel to RNG, Pacific Green has committed to an approximate 2.3 million gallons of Redeem.\n<\/p>\n \n\u201cSwitching trucks to fuel with Renewable Fuels is vital to improving air quality and fighting climate change in our country\u2019s largest port complex,\u201d said Greg Roche, vice president, Clean Energy. \u201cWe\u2019re proud to see our partnership with Chevron on the Adopt-a-Port in action to put cleaner, carbon-negative trucks on the road and lessen the environmental impact on operations in the region.\u201d\n<\/p>\n Rolling with RNG<\/b><\/p>\n \nCR&R Environmental Services has renewed a contract for an anticipated 20 million gallons of Redeem to fuel over 200 CNG waste and recycling trucks at its Garden Grove and Perris stations. This volume is expected to increase as CR&R completes replacement of more diesel trucks in the coming years.\n<\/p>\n \nIn San Juan Capistrano, CA, CR&R has extended a separate contract for an expected 9 million gallons of Redeem to power over 100 LNG waste and recycling trucks.\n<\/p>\n \nWaste Connections, the third largest waste company in North America, has inked a multi-year extended supply contract for an approximate 8 million gallons of Redeem to meet its growing RNG truck fleet needs. A long-term customer of Clean Energy, Waste Connections has expanded its fleet of 110 waste trucks to 100 percent RNG at its San Jose hauling company.\n<\/p>\n \n\u201cRNG is a low-carbon alternative to diesel that provides numerous environmental and economic benefits,\u201d said Paul Nelson, Division Vice President of Waste Connections. \u201cOur RNG trucks perform well, don\u2019t require significant infrastructure development, and support the broader environmental objectives of the customer base we serve. Fueling our fleet with Redeem provides us a long term GHG solution for the market and helps us achieve our corporate sustainability<\/a> goals.\u201d\n<\/p>\n \nLong-time Clean Energy customer Atlas Disposal, a waste hauling company based in Sacramento, has signed a multi-year extension contract for an anticipated 10 million gallons of Redeem across their two stations \u2013 Sacramento and San Jose.\n<\/p>\n \n\u201cWhen it comes to alternative fuel technology, there is no better solution than natural gas trucks from a performance, emissions and cost benefit perspective. And when those trucks use RNG, it\u2019s a game changer for the market,\u201d said Dave Sikich, president, Atlas Disposal. \u201cBeing good stewards of the environment was one of the pillars on which Atlas Disposal was founded, so we are proud of our commitment to be a 100% RNG company across all our fleet operations. RNG is the best low-carbon solution for companies like ours.\u201d\n<\/p>\n \nBig Blue Bus, the transit agency that services one of the most environmentally conscious cities in Los Angeles County, Santa Monica, CA, has extended its Redeem fueling contract with Clean Energy for an anticipated 4 million gallons of RNG to fill its bus fleet, one of the largest in the nation.\n<\/p>\n Zero Now<\/b><\/p>\n \nLinden Bulk Transportation LLC, a subsidiary of Odyssey Logistics & Technology Corporation, has added two new natural gas trucks to its fleet through Clean Energy\u2019s Zero Now<\/a> program. The offering brings the price of a natural gas truck at parity with a diesel truck, while offering a guaranteed fuel discount for the duration of the agreement.\n<\/p>\n \nThe new CNG tractors will fuel with an estimated 20,000 gallons of CNG and are the first in Linden\u2019s plan to add more natural gas trucks to the Odyssey fleet.\n<\/p>\n \n\u201cNatural gas powers more than 12 million vehicles on the road today \u2013 and for good reason,\u201d said Michael Salz, president of Linden Bulk Transportation. \u201cCompanies like Odyssey use natural gas tractors to reduce smog-forming emissions and pollutants and better align with carbon footprint and sustainability goals.\u201d\n<\/p>\n \nNational Cement, based in Encino, CA, has purchased 15 new RNG concrete mixers through Clean Energy\u2019s Zero Now program, with a multi-year fuel agreement for an anticipated 675,000 gallons of Redeem.\n<\/p>\n \nThe Town of Smithtown on Long Island, NY has again required the use of natural gas refuse trucks in its city refuse franchise and signed a corresponding term extension for Clean Energy\u2019s fueling services.
