Only one alternative fuel can lower your total cost-of-ownership while reducing emissions. Propane offers more uptime and scalable infrastructure for your fleet.

A big misconception that permeates the transportation industry today is that electric vehicles are the only avenue towards legitimate emissions reductions for fleets.

While it’s true that electric vehicles emit virtually no greenhouse gases (GHG) during operation, discussion around all the pollutants created “upstream” when a lithium-ion battery cell is manufactured oftentimes gets left out of the equation.

Regardless of the pros and cons of EVs, there are a lot of alternative fuel options available and worth considering for any fleet placing a priority on emissions reductions.

Propane autogas is one of those fuels. Unlike other alternative fuels, propane autogas provides fleets with the clean emissions profile they seek, at an affordable cost. Plus, with decades of use throughout the world as a transportation fuel, propane autogas offers proven performance without the growing pains newer alternative energy options may still be dealing with.

Substantial emissions reductions

For fleets asking if propane autogas can substantially reduce vehicle emissions at the tailpipe, whether we’re talking GHG, nitrogen oxide (NOx), or particulate matter, the answer is “yes.” And technological advancements are only making it cleaner.

New research from the West Virginia University Center for Alternative Fuels, Engines, and Emissions that looked at tailpipe emissions in school buses. The school transportation industry is ground-zero when it comes to vehicle safety because of the precious cargo it transports every day: children. That vehicle safety includes the emissions and particulate matter coming from the tailpipe, which can be hazardous to the health of those students it helps to transport. The West Virginia University study found an even greater emissions disparity during real-world use between school buses powered by propane autogas and diesel than what previous laboratory tests had found. When the university compared the in-use emissions levels of a 2015 model-year propane autogas and 2014 diesel school bus using two distinct test routes, the study found the propane autogas school bus NOx emissions were between 96 percent less than the comparable diesel model.

Proven track record of success

Propane autogas is a proven technology that has been on roadways for decades and more and more fleets continue to turn to it as their fuel of choice. In fact, more than 13,000 propane autogas light- and medium-duty fleet vehicles were sold in 2017 alone. More than 900,000 students ride a propane autogas school district to school every day in 800-plus districts located in 48 states. A lot of fleet managers already put their trust behind propane autogas.

Propane autogas is used in a variety of vehicle applications, too. It’s fueling delivery vans, construction trucks, taxi cabs, police cruisers, school buses, and even city maintenance vehicles.

The next time you read about vehicle electrification being the solution for emissions reductions, remember that there are alternative fuels already proven to perform at an affordable price.
