Clean Energy Fuels Wins 2 Puerto Rico LNG Contracts Supporting 10 MW of Power Capacity
Clean Energy Fuels (CLNE) secured two contracts in Puerto Rico to support 10 megawatts of installed power capacity through liquefied natural gas infrastructure projects, the company said Tuesday.The agreements mark Clean Energy's first LNG supply infrastructure projects in Puerto Rico and expand the company's energy services business beyond its traditional transportation fuel market.One contract covers LNG station equipment and installation for a global healthcare products supplier, which selected natural gas infrastructure to support reliable power for its pharmaceutical manufacturing operations.Separately, Clean Energy signed an agreement with PR Energy Partners to design and construct an LNG supply station to serve a 6 MW combined heat and power plant that supports residential and hotel properties in Puerto Rico.The company said the two projects will provide energy security and resiliency for both customers' operations in Puerto Rico."Being chosen as the trusted partners and experts in natural gas and LNG supply systems is a confirmation of our expansion into different energy services," Sean Columbia, general manager of CE Technologies at Clean Energy, said."These projects demonstrate the reliability and scalability of our engineered LNG solutions and will help strengthen energy resilience on the island," Columbia added.Clean Energy said its modular LNG infrastructure can provide primary and backup power for applications including manufacturing facilities, hospitals, data centers, ports, industrial sites and power generation projects, while offering lower emissions than diesel and fuel oil.
