Virginia Clean Cities announced that a new state contract brought forth by James Madison University provides all vehicle fleets in the Commonwealth of Virginia with new pricing on Autogas vehicle conversion equipment, in addition to access to renewable Liquid Gas. Blossman Gas is the equipment and fuelling partner on the contract.

“Autogas is a proven and viable solution for fleets in the Commonwealth of Virginia today, and we are excited to offer this additional opportunity for reduced emissions with a renewable Autogas component,” said Steve McCoy, Vice-president of Business Development with Blossman Gas.

With the contract, those using conventional Autogas can purchase an up to 20% renewable Liquid Gas blend, reducing harmful emissions such as carbon and particulate matter even further.

“Nearly identical to conventional LPG in terms of its chemical structure and physical properties, there is only one exception with renewable Liquid Gas: it is not a fossil fuel,” highlighted Virginia Clean Cities.

“Autogas is a widely available fuel used in public and private fleets in Virginia and I’m so glad to have this fuel on state contract,” said Alleyn Harned, Executive Director of Virginia Clean Cities at James Madison University. “It is exciting for JMU to launch a state-wide contract for this renewable fuel option.”
