Carbon negative bio-LNG could gain traction in the U.S.
Cummins, Hexagon Agility and Natural Gas Vehicles for America weigh in on bio liquified natural gas which for now has been mostly at work in European trucks.
May 26, 2023
Internal combustion still got game. Hexagon Agility displayed UPS' Mack truck which runs on renewable natural gas at ACT Expo earlier this month. The annual week-long event features mostly all-electric commercial vehicles followed by hydrogen fuel cell. Internal combustion (IC) examples like the one above are few and far between though experts, including those at Cummins, see clean-running IC powertrains playing a critical role on the long path to zero emissions. Bio liquified natural gas (LNG) may get some additional use in the U.S. as fleets push to cut emissions but it's expected to be an uphill climb given a lack of infrastructure. Hexagon reports that it's bio LNG Cryoshelter shown on the left sparked interest in both U.S. and European fleets.

'Massive tailwind' from renewable natural gas as proponents seek new fuel tax credit
Renewable natural gas advocates including Cummins and Clean Energy, the largest RNG provider in the nation, are off to Washington D.C., next month to remind lawmakers and government officials that electric isn't the only clean energy option.
April 4, 2023
Hyliion CEO and founder Thomas Healy said growing popularity of carbon negative renewable natural gas (RNG) is creating a 'massive tailwind' for the startup's RNG-fueled hybrid trucks. More RNG suppliers have stepped up in the space including BP, Chevron and Shell. An RNG fuel tax credit bill, if passed, could create even more interest.
