The Economics of RNG: Making Dollars & Sense for Fleets

Posted on Tuesday, May 27, 2025
Private fleet operators, for-hire carriers, refuse truck fleets, transit authorities and others have been transitioning their fleets from diesel to alternative fuels like renewable natural gas (RNG), leading to more than 135,000 natural gas vehicles on U.S. roads.1 While emission reduction is one of the key drivers for this switch, transitioning to a lower-carbon fuel may also provide operational and economic benefits. Check out how switching to RNG can positively impact your company’s bottom line.
 

While there are other options for alternative fuels, RNG is a proven and turnkey solution that can help your company progress toward its environmental, operational and economic goals.
