Clean Energy, which has contracts with fleets in the ports of Los Angeles/Long Beach, said drayage company Pac Anchor Transportation has added 23 trucks to its fleet for an estimated 2.5 million gallons/year of RNG. 

Other contracts secured are with Cal Portland, Biagi Brothers, Ecology Auto Parts, Matheson Trucking Co. and Republic Transportation Group. Another five-year agreement is with Evo Transportation & Energy Services Inc., a provider for the U.S. Postal Service.
