CSS operates in the states of Washington, Oregon and California with a focus on the interstate 5 corridor. Clean Power is expected to benefit through CSS’s expertise and contacts, which will help to accelerate the company’s development project.

Abdul Mitha, president and CEO of Clean Power, said: “CSS is uniquely positioned with regulators, not only at the Environmental Protection Agency and its Smart Way division, but also at the Department of Transport and within agencies in the states of California, Oregon and beyond.

“CSS represents the trucking industry from large fleets to individual owner-operators, as well as the broader supply chain such as port and truck-stop operators. Their ultimate endorsement of the CESAR technology will be a big leap forward for Clean Power Technologies.”

CSS brings together clean fuel technologies, low-cost financing and government grants to enable the trucking industry to save fuel and reduce emissions.
