As part of the program, Alliance AutoGas will retrofit 77 vehicles, across three Ohio fleets, to run on propane AutoGas and will install AutoGas refueling sites at each of the fleet bases. The other companies that have chipped in are Columbus Green Cabs, Yellow Cab of Cleveland, and Ace Taxi of Cleveland.
By converting vehicles to AutoGas the companies can expect to reap benefits such as lower fuel costs, reduced greenhouse gas emissions and lowered dependence on foreign oil.
The vehicles considered for propane AutoGas vehicle conversion include taxis, law enforcement and municipal vehicles, limousines, utility company vehicles and many others.
Steve McCoy, a representative of Alliance AutoGas, said: ”Alliance AutoGas is proud to be a part of the Clean Cities initiative helping fleets convert to domestic AutoGas. Our mission to put more propane-powered fleets on the road and to grow the national propane AutoGas infrastructure is helping America gain energy independence while providing lasting benefits to fleets.”
