Ledcor Converts Fleet to CNG

http://www.ledcor.com/news-events/news/2014/october/ledcor-to-own-one-of-canada-s-largest-natural-gas

 

Using FortisBC's incentive program, Ledcor has committed to taking 200 CNG Ford Transits to replace their service fleet. Currently they already own 15 Class 8 LNG trucks giving them 215 alternative fuel vehicles.

 

Scott Lyons, COO Ledcor Technical Services states; "We estimate we'll reduce our annual fuel costs by about 30% and reduce our green-house-gas emissions by approximately 23% or 2,000 tonnes of CO2e per year.

 

Ledcor states the CNG auto's significantly lower emissions.

 

70 - 90 percent less carbon monoxide.

75 - 95 percent less nitrogen oxides.

20 - 30 percent less carbon dioxide.

 

CNG vehicles see less corrosion and wear in engine parts, allowing for a more durable, productive and reliable fleet.

 

Ford Fleet Sales was thrilled to have one company change their whole fleet to the new Ford Transit Connect CNG mini van.
