Casella to convert ME fleet to natural gas
Casella Waste Systems is converting its fleet to run on natural gas and is installing a natural gas fuel station at its Westbrook transfer station.
The American Journal reported that American Natural Gas, which builds natural gas pumping stations, will install the new fuel station for Casella, pending local approval.
The company began introducing natural gas-fueled trash collection vehicles into its Vermont fleet in 2011.
The fuel is now cheaper than diesel fuel and the company says it also reduces emissions, vehicle noise and dependence on imported fuels.
