San Francisco International Airport (SFO) says it started yesterday using a new form of renewable vehicle fuel made from waste.
A renewable natural gas vehicle called Redeem is now being used at the Californian airport’s two compress natural gas (CNG) stations.
The natural gas product is made from waste streams such as landfills, large dairies and sewage plants.
SFO’s 600 buses, vans, taxis and autos, which run on CNG will use the clean energy fuel.
Airport director, John Martin, said: “A cleaner fuel that is renewable, supports our goal to achieve zero-emissions in ground transportation.”
BART, Airtrain, on-airport shuttle buses, hotel courtesy shuttles, off-airport parking shuttles, San Francisco city taxis, and shared-ride vans are all 100% clean air vehicles and run on CNG.
