News Breaks November 13, 2012 07:16 EDT GE, CLNE General Electric and Clean Energy announce collaboration GE (GE) and Clean Energy Fuels (CLNE) announced a collaboration to expand the infrastructure for natural gas transportation in the U.S.. The agreement supports Clean Energy's efforts in developing "America's Natural Gas Highway," a fueling network that will enable trucks to operate on Liquefied Natural Gas, or LNG, coast to coast and border to border. Truck fleets often can reduce fuel costs by more than 25 percent and lower emissions with LNG. GE's MicroLNG plant can liquefy natural gas at any point along a gas distribution network, making it ideal for supporting the fueling of vehicles in remote locations by reducing the impact of long distance fuel transport. As part of the collaboration, Clean Energy Fuels will initially purchase two ecomagination-qualified MicroLNG plants from GE Oil & Gas. The plug-and-play modular units, which are designed to rapidly liquefy natural gas while minimizing a site's physical footprint, will support fueling stations along critical transportation corridors that run across the U.S. Further underscoring GE's commitment to expanding natural gas transportation infrastructure, GE Energy Financial Services is providing up to $200M in financing for the two GE MicroLNG plants.
