PENN STATE ADDS THREE MORE VEHICLES TO FLEET OF NGVS

Penn State’s Transportation Services has deployed three new Honda Civic Natural Gas parking enforcement vehicles. The new vehicles replaced older vehicles that had reached retirement. Transportation Services chose natural gas in part due to the ease of access to existing fueling infrastructure. The Office of Physical Plant at Penn State has invested in and operates 58 CNG vehicles. “With an existing compressed natural gas infrastructure and pumps already in place at our OPP fueling station, and with the vehicles only being used on campus, Innovation Park, and other nearby campus properties, this was the perfect application and opportunity to use them,” said Ryan Givens, assistant director of Transportation Services.
