AAA Mid-Atlantic Begins Fueling Truck Fleet at Philadelphia CNG Station
April 21, 2021
AAA Mid-Atlantic – in partnership with Philadelphia Gas Works (PGW), Air & Gas Technologies and the Eastern Pennsylvania Alliance for Clean Transportation (EPACT) – has completed a time-fill compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling station located at its Philadelphia Fleet Depot.
The station handles AAA Mid-Atlantic’s 23 CNG-battery trucks via 12 time-fill hoses and is the first station of its kind in AAA Club Alliance’s territory.
“We have been committed to employing alternative fuels to both control costs and protect the environment,” says Mike Matijkiw, fleet business manager for AAA Mid-Atlantic. “The new CNG station helps us take advantage of several programs that reduce our operational costs and support our continued investment in alternative fuels.”
