The California Energy Commission’s Clean Transportation Program awarded Fresno Unified School District $500,000 to expand its compressed natural gas fueling system by adding nine quad-hosed fueling posts, one tri-hosed fueling post and upgrading of one single-hose post to a double-hose post. These 40 new fueling stations
FUSD revised the parking layout for buses at the transportation yard to install these 40 new fill stations to slow-fill school buses. These improvements in fuel delivery allows FUSD’s school bus fleet to curtail its use of offsite fueling facilities which, in addition to reducing fuel costs, reduces the overall miles traveled by the buses.
