Two new CRISI awards to Colorado State University Pueblo and the University of Delaware will fast-track FRA Concurrence for OptiFuel Total-Zero™ Diesel-RNG Dual Fuel Hybrid Switchers and Line Haul Locomotives to 2026 and 2027, respectively.
OptiFuel Systems is honored to join the American Short Line and Regional Railroad Association as a panelist at their Central & Pacific Region Meeting on October 29, 2024 in Dallas, Texas.
OptiFuel CEO & President Scott Myers will be presenting a talk entitled “Achieving Low Risk, Affordable Decarbonization of the U.S. Locomotive Fleet to Zero Emissions Using a Diesel-RNG Dual Fuel ‘No Tender’ Solution”.
In stark contrast to the cautious outlook from Class 1 railroads, OptiFuel presented a dynamic strategic roadmap for the growth, sustainability, and revitalization of the U.S. rail sector, catalyzed by next-generation modular locomotive technologies that are not only zero-emission but also superior in performance, efficiency, and safety.
OptiFuel CEO Scott Myers presented a strategy and technology to affordability decarbonize (zero criteria and GHG emissions) the Class 1 line haul locomotive fleet using renewable natural gas (RNG), covering the entire system approach from the off-the-shelf technology, locomotive testing for FRA, the fuel, the refueling approach, and affordability.
Moving to zero emissions presents a unique challenge. Join OptiFuel CEO Scott Myers and a panel of rail industry experts for a free webinar to better understand the transition and how it directly relates to your operations.
