UPS all in for natural gas
D
avid Abney, chief operating officer for
UPS, went all in on natural gas while
speaking at the ACT Expo in Washington
D.C. Abney said UPS's commitment to
natural gas vehicles has come an unprecedented full circle in the company's fleet
buying cycle.
"For 2014, every tractor in the U.S. for
our small package business will be natural
gas," he said. "It may be CNG or LNG, but it
will be natural gas. We've never been able to
say that before."
Abney said that on the heels of a multibillion-dollar investment, UPS has emerged as
a leader in putting natural gas on America's
roads, noting that his company has invested
more than $250 million since 2007 to deploy
2,700 natural gas vehicles around the world.
Abney expects UPS to reach 500 million
green miles in 2015 and one billion green
miles by the end of 2017.
