Looks as if many are on vacation, not sitting st their computer.
This is something that caught my attention and is why I am bullish for this stock
New vehicles and platforms are coming to market and being developed including the new commenced Westport 6.7 liter engine and the CWI 9 liter near zero NOx engine. Additionally, Quantum Fuel Systems just launched a high capacity CNG fuel module last week. We’ve also seen the incremental cost of natural gas trucks continue to come down, partly due to our tank programs with agility and chart.
In trucking, in the first half of the year, we’ve began fuel 700 new trucks and open 15 truck friendly stations in 11 states and we plan to open 10 more by year-end. In total, we now have 208 truck friendly stations open across 31 states in British Columbia. These include Corridors, the I-5 and Highway 99 between northern and southern California. On the I-40 from LA to Oklahoma City, the I-10 from LA to Jacksonville, the I-20 from LA Birmingham going through Dallas and on the I-95 from Jacksonville to Richmond and CNG tractors can now go from Washington DC through Philadelphia, New York, and Boston. We now fuel close to 3,000 Class-8 heavy-duty trucks nationally.
We recently our demo truck programs where we lend new CNG or LNG trucks and box trucks to potential customers. Our goal is to provide as many fleets as possible with the opportunity to test drive these natural gas trucks, if they have a positive driving experience on top of enjoying the benefits of a cheaper and cleaner fuel.
The demand for these trucks has been strong and there are currently 93 fleets on the waiting list to demo the trucks in both our core and trucking segments. In our refuse market, the momentum continues. We have completed 17 station projects to date and we anticipate we will complete 36 refuse station projects by the end of the year.
