The collaboration involves the deployment of Ford F-250/350
vehicles fueled by Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), used to support
LAX’s fleet operations.
The vehicles come directly from the Ford manufacturing plant to
Landi Renzo USA’s facility in Torrance, where they are converted
with the Landi Renzo’s “Eco Ready™” CNG system.
Landi Renzo USA is the only approved Ford QVM (Qualified Vehicle
Modifier) developer for pick-up trucks certified by CARB
(California Air Resources Board), the agency responsible for
implementing California's landmark climate legislation. As an OEM
approved system under Ford’s QVM program, the original warranty
remains fully in place.
LAX serves more than 87 million passengers a year and 2.2
million tons of goods pass through the airport each year and
maintains one of the largest airport clean vehicle fleets in the
nation.
Over two-thirds of LAWA’s fleet vehicles use alternative fuels,
with 68 percent of these using CNG. Through the adoption of the
Airport Alternative Fuel Policy by the Los Angeles Board of Airport
Commissioners, the airport is poised to further reduce its
emissions.
Andrea Landi, President of Landi Renzo USA, stated, “We are
pleased to be associated with Los Angeles World Airports, a
long-time advocate of clean transportation. They’ve been a great
partner of Landi Renzo for years and we look forward to continuing
to offer clean alternative solutions for their critical
operations.”
With unique operational requirements, Landi Renzo has worked
closely with LAWA to ensure the CNG product meets their needs. “We
have provided extensive CNG training and consulting to LAWA’s fleet
department. In fact, we prototyped a couple of configurations to
further streamline their operation to ensure it is efficient,” said
Landi.
