JUNO BEACH, FL - Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) has managed to save an estimated $440 million in fuel costs and avoid approximately 4.9 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions in 2009.
As more regulations are put in place to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the “going green” movement continues to expand, here are a few strategies fleets have used to green their operations.
The West Palm Beach-based utility fleet operates more than 60 Class 7 conventional and electric plug-in hybrids and will add more in the future.
Through the support of WestStart-CALSTART’s Hybrid Truck Users Forum, 13 utility fleets became early adopters of medium- and heavy-duty hybrid truck technology.
To combat volatile diesel fuel prices, Navistar offers truck fleets a greener alternative with the International DuraStar medium-duty diesel hybrid electric truck — offering up to 60% more fuel economy than traditional diesel engines.
