Renewable natural gas (RNG) is not only the ideal but also the long-term solution to dramatically reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the freight transportation industry, a panel of industry experts told media and other attendees today at the American Trucking Association's (ATA) annual conference in Nashville, Tennessee.
The panel consisted of two fleet executives: Ryan Bankerd, UPS director of sustainability and Matt Copot, VP of fleet management, Saia LTL Freight. The rest of the panel included: Matthew Spears, executive director of global regulatory affairs at Cummins; Eric Bippus, executive vice president of sales and systems at Hexagon Agility; Brett Lindsay, VP of national accounts at Clean Energy; and Marty Tufte, corporate fleet director of The Transport Project.
