May 11, 2024. Paper Transport (PTI) announces a significant milestone, exceeding 70 million miles utilizing compressed/renewable natural gas (CNG/RNG) vehicles. Committed to sustainable transportation solutions, PTI continues to lead the industry with innovative initiatives aimed at reducing carbon emissions and promoting environmental stewardship.
“At PTI, sustainability isn’t just a goal; it’s a way of doing business. The technology and processes are here today to make a difference for generations to come. It’s time to act on what is available to us now”, said Ben Schill, Chief Executive Officer.
Since its inception, PTI has been at the forefront of integrating CNG/RNG technology into its fleet, pioneering using environmentally friendly fuels to drive impactful change. For one of its large consumer products manufacturers, PTI combined Intermodal with asset-backed RNG trucks for drayage, successfully removing 2,419 tons of greenhouse gases from supply chains, significantly contributing to environmental preservation efforts.
“We’re encouraged by shippers’ recognition of proven alternative fuels like RNG/CNG, as highlighted in the NACFE’s ‘Messy Middle‘ description. While BEVs are increasingly present in transportation, local applications such as Intermodal drayage remain ideal for their shorter run and return-to-base nature. Shippers can collaborate with carriers like PTI to adopt RNG as an alternate fuel, leveraging existing technology and infrastructure. Natural gas applications are economically viable today and can effectively replace diesel fuel in longer-range scenarios without sacrificing payload capacity”, said Jared Stedl, Chief Commercial Officer.
