Report: RNG Trucks Are Best Option for Replacing Diesel
A new report from Energy Vision, a New York-based sustainability nongovernmental organization, has found that trucks powered by renewable natural gas (RNG) are the best option for replacing aging heavy-duty diesel trucks.
The report, “A Path to a Healthier America: Ditching Old Diesel Trucks,” assesses three non-petroleum alternatives to replace heavy-duty diesel trucks built prior to 2013. Diesel trucks contribute heavily to emissions, and 2.4 million of them are still in operation across the U.S., Energy Vision says.
