LOS ANGELES - Starting next year, there will be a lot more “green” in those brown UPS delivery trucks.
The latest move from the world’s largest package delivery firm comes as utility companies, investors and others seek to expand the use of RNG - which is derived from decomposing organic matter such as cow manure on dairy farms, discarded food in landfills and human waste in water treatment plants - to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
UPS expects to use 31.9 million gasoline gallon equivalents of RNG this year. As of this month, it has agreed to purchase 230 million GGE of RNG over the next seven years, a commitment that UPS says makes it the transportation industry’s largest user of RNG.The Atlanta-based company’s new vehicle purchases will begin next year and add to the roughly 10,000 alternative fuel or advanced technology delivery vehicles already in use by UPS.
