Today, let’s engage in a healthy debate between two heavy duty fuels in the world of transportation: diesel and propane autogas. While the upcoming four years has the potential to hold political and economic changes, one thing remains constant: propane is an affordable, clean, steady solution for transportation needs in nearly every industry.

These days we are constantly hearing about EV adoption strategies for fleets, but it’s important to remember that there are other ways — beyond and in addition to electrification – to ‘green’ your fleet.
Hear from the winner of the Green Fleet Award from STN, along with some other interesting school bus related topics.
Whether the driving factor is social pressure, government regulations, or simply to save money, fleets across the nation are considering alternative fuels.
One of the reasons I love being a part of the innovative and collaborative ROUSH CleanTech family is that we are relentless about helping businesses, schools and government fleets be successful in their adoption of clean alternative fuels.
One has a lifelong interest in alternative fuels and internal combustion engines. Another saw an opportunity to provide a service no one else in his area was offering. A third saw an opportunity to join a trend toward alternative fuel vehicles. A fourth saw a chance to help a local government save some tax dollars.
The Green Fleet Awards winners announced on July 16 during the Green Bus Summit at STN EXPO Reno recognized four districts and two contractors for their commitment to investing in clean energy school buses.
Sustainable vehicles are not a one-size fits all.
When selecting the best work trucks for specific regions, a mixed-fuel fleet might be your answer.
