Kings Canyon Unified School District Natural Gas Fueling Station

Through Clean Transportation Program grants, the California Energy Commission supported the Kings Canyon Unified School District’s efforts to scale up its compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling station to meet the needs of several regional school districts, the city of Reedley’s fleet, and the public.

The three Clean Transportation Program grants totaling $1.3 million helped reduce pollution in the Central Valley by replacing diesel-powered buses with natural gas buses and supporting vehicles that produce less pollution.

Kings Canyon Unified has 25 CNG-powered buses and five CNG-powered service vehicles. Due to financial restraints, the district looked to outside income sources to keep its CNG station operating.
