“The Alternative Fuel Roadshow is a great opportunity for decision makers to learn more about natural gas and other alternative fuel vehicles available to them on the market,” said Bryan Batson, president of Atlanta Gas Light, which operates a fleet of natural gas vehicles. “We are happy to be supporters of the roadshow, which continues to highlight natural gas and other fuel sources as a viable transportation option.”

In addition to learning about the economics and general practices of implementing and financing alternative fuel fleets, attendees will hear from local officials from host cities, which now operate CNG refuse trucks, pickup trucks, sedans and other CNG vehicles in their fleets.

Private sector leaders who have adopted alternative fuels will also share their experiences during the tour. Companies such as AT&T, Mansfield Clean Energy Partners, and The Langdale Company have made significant investments transitioning to natural gas for their fleet vehicles.
