| Rainbow's Residential Automated Collection Vehicles Are Powered By Clean Natural Gas |
||||||
|
Our fleet of automated collection vehicles are powered by compressed natural gas (CNG), a clean burning fuel produced domestically.
Environmental and Health Benefits: CNG produces significantly fewer smog-producing emissions than reformulated gasoline or diesel fuel when used in natural gas vehicles. Heavy-duty natural gas trucks have demonstrated more than 90 percent reduction in carbon monoxide - the principle "greenhouse gas" - and more than 50 percent in nitrogen oxides compared with commercial diesel engines. Certification: Natural gas vehicles have been certified to meet California's low-emission vehicle standards. Energy Security: Using domestic natural gas instead of oil or other fuels imported from overseas improves energy security. Safety: CNG fueling stations are safe. Industry standards have been adopted by various federal agencies, and are continually upgraded to make natural gas the safest vehicular fuel. |
