A new compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling station has opened in Kirkwood, NY. The station, opened by Trillium CNG and Mirabito Energy, will serve fleet vehicles for Frito-Lay and Willow Run Foods.
The station will also be open to the public and provide 24-hour, seven-day service to vehicles, including Class 8 trucks. It will employ Trillium CNG’s proprietary fast-fill hydraulic intensifier compressor. There are three fueling lanes with expansion for an additional two lanes as demand increases.
Mary Boettcher, president of Trillium CNG and Joe Mirabito, CEO of Mirabito Energy, along with Gino Porter, regional fleet manager for Frito Lay, Terry Wood, CEO of Willow Run Foods and John Bernardo, Deputy County Executive of Broome County, attended a groundbreaking ceremony.
“We are proud to partner with Mirabito Energy, Willow Run Foods and Frito-Lay, who recognize the importance of making CNG available in the Binghamton area,” said Boettcher.
