Clean Energy to Design and Build New Hydrogen Station for Riverside Transit Agency

By: via Business Wire

New station to support Riverside Transit Agency’s growing hydrogen bus fleet with state-of-the-art fueling infrastructure and hydrogen supply

Clean Energy (NASDAQ: CLNE), the country’s largest provider of the cleanest fuel for the transportation market, has been awarded the contract to design and construct a new state-of-the-art hydrogen fueling station for Riverside Transit Agency (RTA) in California. The contract was won following a competitive solicitation and also includes the supply of hydrogen and maintenance services for the private access, purpose-built station located in Riverside.

RTA plans to initially operate five fuel cell buses when the station opens and will grow its fleet to over 100 hydrogen-powered buses over the next decade. The new facility will play a central role in RTA’s commitment to transition to a zero-emission vehicle fleet.

As a transit agency who serves one of the geographically largest regions in the U.S., RTA has some of the longest passenger routes, making hydrogen a natural choice as a clean alternative fuel and an alternative to battery-electric buses to power the agency’s high-mileage transit bus routes.

“Being awarded another hydrogen station is a testament to Clean Energy’s leadership and expertise in the hydrogen fueling space. Partnering with the forward-thinking team at Riverside Transit is a great feather in our hat as they transition, expand and diversify to other clean, low emissions technologies,” said Chad Lindholm, senior vice president of Clean Energy. “Hydrogen offers a reliable solution for long routes and this new station will support RTA’s goals to serve their community cleanly for years to come.”

“This project reflects our commitment to fostering healthier communities by advancing clean energy solutions and is a critical milestone as we move to a zero-emission vehicle fleet,” said Jeremy Smith, Board Chair at Riverside Transit Agency. “We are driving innovation while addressing the need for environmentally responsible solutions.”

This station announcement follows news that RTA will purchase five 40-foot hydrogen fuel cell electric buses after being awarded a $5.1 million grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation which begins the agency’s plan of transitioning its large bus fleet to zero-emissions vehicles, expected to take place in phases beginning in 2026.

This is the second hydrogen station project Clean Energy has been awarded recently with the first build successfully completed for Foothill Transit Agency in Pomona, CA, in June 2023.
