Andrew J. Littlefair, Clean Energy’s President and Chief Executive Officer, stated “Our volume continues to grow at a good pace with a 10% increase for the year over 2018 as we exceeded the 100 million gallon mark in the fourth quarter for the second consecutive quarter. Our financial position dramatically improved in the quarter, lifted nicely by $47.1 million in Alternative Fuels Tax Credit revenue, positioning us well going into 2020. We also have great momentum going into 2020 with increasing attention on renewable natural gas (RNG), on clean air heavy duty trucks, and particularly heavy-duty trucks running on our Redeem renewable RNG fuel. We believe the market’s increasing demand for Redeem positions us well for continued growth as an increasing number of customers are turning to RNG to meet sustainability goals. These customers are under growing pressure from customers and investors to set environmental, social and governance (ESG) goals, and RNG can help. No other transportation fuel provides greater carbon and NOx reductions than our Redeem RNG, which can easily and economically be adopted by heavy-duty truck fleets."
