Clean Energy Wins Contract to Build Hydrogen Fueling Station in Riverside, California
Key Ideas
  • Clean Energy has been awarded a contract to design and construct a new hydrogen fueling station for Riverside Transit Agency (RTA) in California.
  • RTA plans to operate five fuel cell buses initially and expand to over 100 hydrogen-powered buses in the next decade, supporting their commitment to a zero-emission vehicle fleet.
  • The project signifies a step towards fostering healthier communities and advancing clean energy solutions, aiming to transition RTA's large bus fleet to zero-emissions vehicles by 2026.
  • This initiative reflects Clean Energy's expertise in hydrogen fueling and commitment to providing reliable solutions for long routes, furthering the adoption of low emissions technologies.
Clean Energy has secured a contract to develop a new hydrogen fueling station for Riverside Transit Agency in California. The station will not only include the design and construction but also the supply of hydrogen and maintenance services. RTA plans to begin by operating five fuel cell buses and gradually increase its hydrogen-powered bus fleet to more than 100 over the next ten years. This move is part of RTA's strategy to shift to a zero-emission vehicle fleet. Clean Energy's Senior Vice President, Chad Lindholm, emphasized the company's leadership in the hydrogen fueling sector and praised RTA's transition to cleaner technologies. The construction of the new hydrogen fueling station is a crucial step following RTA's procurement of a grant to purchase five hydrogen fuel cell electric buses. This purchase marks the initiation of RTA's phased plan to transition its bus fleet to zero-emissions vehicles starting in 2026. The project aligns with Clean Energy's recent success in building hydrogen stations, with a prior completion for Foothill Transit Agency in Pomona, California. The endeavor underscores a joint commitment to sustainability, innovation, and environmentally responsible solutions in the public transportation sector.
