Paso Robles Waste & Recycle will get $300,000 grant
Paso Robles Waste & Recycle will get $300,000 to build a compressed natural gas refueling station for new gas-fueled garbage trucks.
The California Energy Commission (CEC) announced this week that it has awarded $17,223,593 in grants intended to promote cleaner-fueled vehicles in the state of California. The grants, made as part of Commission’s Alternative and Renewable Fuel and Vehicle Technology Program, are going to eight recipients who’ll use them in projects ranging from a Fresno biodiesel plant to a cutting-edge traffic modeling software suite.
“These awards are helping to support the expansion of alternative fuels and zero-emission vehicles in California,” said Energy Commission Chair Robert B. Weisenmiller in a CEC press release. “Additionally, the funded projects will reduce greenhouse gas emissions and other pollutants to protect our environment and improve the health of all Californians.”
