ampCNG and Greater Indiana Clean Cities to Host NGV Road Rally Stop at Fair Oaks Farms

June 12 Event to Bring Natural Gas Vehicle (NGV) Supporters Together

CHICAGO (June 7, 2017) – ampCNG, a provider of compressed natural gas (CNG) infrastructure, along with its ampRENEW division, a producer, marketer and distributor of renewable natural gas (RNG) for the heavy-duty commercial trucking industry, is proud to announce that together with Greater Indiana Clean Cities, it will be co-hosting a stop on the 2nd annual ‘From Sea-to-Shining-Sea’ NGV Road Rally Across America. The event will take place from 11:30am – 1:00pm on Monday, June 12 at ampCNG’s public-access fueling station located at Fair Oaks Farms in Indiana. The event is open to the public.

This year’s NGV Road Rally, presented by NGVAmerica, the American Public Gas Association (APGA) and the American Gas Association (AGA), highlights the many benefits of using clean-burning, domestic natural gas in transportation and the variety of vehicles available today that operate on natural gas. The 18-stop, 4,825-mile journey started outside of Long Beach, California on Monday, June 5 and will conclude in Washington, D.C. on Friday, June 16.

The rally not only dispels the myth of NGV ‘range anxiety’ but will also draw attention to the historic VW settlement program and serve to educate state officials on how NGVs are the most cost-effective use of funds for clean transportation projects outlined in the $2.9 billion Environmental Mitigation Trust Fund.

“Events like this are important and help bring our industry together while also serving to educate the public about the many benefits of CNG and RNG – which when used in heavy trucks are cleaner for our air and climate than electric,” said Grant Zimmerman, CEO at ampCNG. “We’re excited to play a part and we’re looking forward to recognizing some key players who are making an impact on our industry, economy and environment.”

Capitalizing on America’s vast RNG resource, ampCNG’s biogas division, ampRENEW, sources RNG from ampCNG’s biogas operation at Fair Oaks Farms in Indiana, the largest on-farm to vehicle fuel biogas project in the country.

“No other alternative fuel offers as many vehicles to meet the needs of consumers and fleets than natural gas,” NGVAmerica President Matthew Godlewski said. “This year’s event will showcase a variety of vehicles operating on clean-burning CNG, LNG and RNG over multiple stops throughout the country.”
