    The joint venture between ampCNG and Trillium CNG, amp Trillium, has opened a new public access compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling station in Canton, OH. The station will serve Frito-Lay North America’s fleet in the area.

    Located directly off U.S. 30/US 65 and across from Frito-Lay North America’s Canton, OH, plant, the amp Trillium station will allow three Class 8 trucks to fuel simultaneously at 10-12 GGE per minute utilizing Trillium CNG’s fast-fill proprietary hydraulic intensifier technology.

    The station is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week and accepts all major credit cards.

    “amp Trillium’s CNG station in Canton further expands our growing network of sustainable and efficient fueling stations for large fleets,” said Donna Rolf, president and general counsel of ampCNG. “We’re proud to support one of the largest CNG fleets in the country and to be playing a significant role in the effort to create the economic and environmental opportunity that CNG provides.”

    “We’re committed to supporting Frito-Lay North America’s CNG fueling infrastructure build-out plan, said Mary Boettcher, Trillium CNG president. Boettcher added “We support Frito Lay’s sustainability goals to improve fleet fuel efficiency through reduction of harmful carbon emissions. Natural gas is clean burning and generates around 20% less greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions than a comparable diesel truck.”
