Clean Energy, Inc. and the City of Newport Beach, Calif., united to set up a new compressed natural gas (CNG) fuelling station in the city. The splendid opening was conducted on May 19.
Situated in the City’s General Services Corporation Yard, the CNG fuelling station will remain open 24 hours a day, seven days a week to serve public fleets and private fomites.
The City will receive a $0.05 (5 cent) royalty fee for every gallon sold at the station. The city press released that this arrangement was as per an agreement with Clean Energy.
The City of Newport Beach lately bought 4 CNG refuse accumulation trucks and will be looking at CNG supplied sedans and light trucks as it substitutes vehicles in the future.
Mayor Keith Curry explicated, “Converting to CNG is the right thing to do fiscally and environmentally. This public-private partnership will reduce our city energy costs, generate new revenue, and help clean up our environment. Being energy efficient is an important element of our Fiscal Sustainability Plan.”
Other companies and agents which will be using the refuelling station include AT&T, Yellow Cab, Waste Management, CR&R, Airport Shuttles, Athens Street Sweeping, and Ware Disposal.
