Southern California Gas Co. plans to add about 1,000 new natural-gas-powered trucks to its fleet over the next five years.
The Los Angeles-based utility will buy new natural-gas-powered trucks from original equipment manufacturers as well as custom-built natural-gas vehicles from Southern California companies. SoCal Gas said it now has about 1,000 natural-gas vehicles in its fleet.
This year, the first of 50 custom-built 2011 Chevrolet Silverado trucks are in use in Southern California, which has nearly 300 compressed-natural-gas fueling stations in operation, according to SoCal Gas.
The utility also plans to expand all of its 13 company-owned public-access compressed-natural-gas stations.
