Clean Energy to convert AT&T vans to run on natural gas



Dec. 21

A subsidiary of Clean Energy Fuels Corp. will convert another 463 vans to run on compressed natural gas for AT&T.

Subsidiary BAF Technologies Inc. said the work will be fulfilled during the second quarter of 2010 and follows a previous order for 463 vehicles that will be delivered to AT&T during the first quarter. And there is the possibility of another order to convert 463 more vehicles during the third quarter, Clean Energy said.

AT&T expects to convert a total of 1,850 vans next year through BAF. Thatīs in addition to 600 van conversions in 2009, Seal Beach, Calif.-based Clean Energy said.

"The new orders demonstrate AT&Tīs determination to significantly alter its fleet to alternative-fuel vehicles," said Andrew J. Littlefair, Clean Energy president and CEO.
