TruStar completes largest private CNG fuelling station in U.S.
TruStar Energy has constructed the largest private fast-fill station for CNG in North America for the trucking company FCA US LLC.
Located at the company’s North American Detroit Terminal, the CNG station will fuel 179 tractor trucks in FCA Transport’s fleet with cleaner, domestically produced natural gas. With six Ariel compressors able to dispense CNG at nearly 40 gasoline-gallon equivalent (GGE) per minute, making it the largest private CNG station in the country.
“Companies that have fleets are beginning to take a longer strategic look at migrating their vehicles to domestic compressed natural gas. Even in a lower oil price environment, certain CNG applications still make economic sense providing significant cost savings while allowing corporations to make progress toward sustainability goals,” said Adam Comora, President of TruStar Energy.
The project was completed for the FCA Transport fleet in less than six months. TruStar Energy owns, will operate and maintain the station and will provide CNG for FCA US under a long-term supply contract.
TruStar Energy has constructed over a hundred private and public CNG fueling stations across the country.
