The Iowa DOT is committing to a lower carbon footprint in their state fleet by operating these ten snow removal and road maintenance trucks with Optimus Technologies’ advanced fuel system technology, powered by 100% biodiesel.
The City of Madison, Wisconsin, has converted 17 of its fleet vehicles to operate on 100% biodiesel.
The City of Ames, Iowa, and the Washington D.C. Department of Public Works have both used B-100 in their fleets, expanding use of the fuel after successful pilots.
The City of Ames municipal fleet added seven additional heavy-duty trucks running on 100% biodiesel.
The DPW began an evaluation of the technology in 2018, when the Optimus system was installed on six garbage and recycling trucks. The Vector System allows these medium- and heavy-duty vehicles to run on pure biodiesel
