Mar 19, 2013 10:50 AM
Dish Network has announced that it will put into service 200 Roush CleanTech propane autogas powered Ford E-250 vans this year, with an estimate of 12.5 million pounds reduction in carbon dioxide emissions over the lifetime of the fleet’s operation compared to gas-powered vehicles.
The vehicles will support residential and commercial customer service in Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles and San Francisco.
“These clean-burning propane autogas vehicles are better for our environment, our communities and operate more efficiently,” said Erik Carlson, executive vice president of service and installation at Dish. “Dish expects to save about $2,500 per vehicle in annual lifecycle costs due to 55% reduction in fuel costs and the cleaner burning properties of propane autogas.”
