Clean Energy is developing the network to enable trucks reduce fuel costs up to 25% and lower emissions by operating on LNG coast to coast and border to border.
Under the collaboration with GE, Clean Energy will buy two ecomagination-qualified MicroLNG plants from GE Oil & Gas.
Designed to reduce a site’s physical footprint, the plug-and-play modular units liquefy natural gas.
GE Energy Financial Services will provide $200m in funding for the two MicroLNG plants.
Clean Energy, which expects to complete 70 LNG stations by the end of 2012, will use a standardized design of the new GE MicroLNG plants to build additional plants.
The first two MicroLNG plants will produce about 250,000 gallons per day.
