Clean Energy Wins Major Transit Deal; Shows Continued Growth with New and Existing Customers

Clean
Energy Fuels Corp. (NASDAQ: CLNE) announced that it won a $10
million, multi-year procurement from New Jersey Transit, the nation’s
third largest provider of bus, rail and light rail transit, which links
major points in New Jersey, New York and Philadelphia and provides close
to 223 million passenger trips each year.

The procurement includes rebuilding a large compressed natural gas (CNG)
fueling station, as well as additional garage modifications and the
repair and maintenance of facilities through 2020. NJ Transit is
expected to operate a fleet of 147 CNG commuter buses estimated to
consume approximately 2 million gasoline gallon equivalents (GGEs) each
year.

Clean Energy also signed other agreements across the transit,
refuse
and trucking
markets, including the construction of new stations and extended
maintenance and fueling contracts.

Transit

• SP+, a provider of professional parking management, has signed a
  5-year fueling agreement with Clean Energy to fuel 16 CNG buses for a
  new Consolidated Rent-A-Car facility located at the San Diego
  International Airport. The buses, owned by the San Diego Airport
  Authority, are anticipated to consume approximately 27,000 GGEs per
  month and will fuel with Redeem™,
  Clean Energy’s renewable natural gas (RNG) derived from biomethane.
• On Feb. 10, 2016, the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation
  Authority (LA
  Metro) opened its Division 13 facility, a $6 million private CNG
  fueling station built by Clean Energy. The new facility, which will be
  maintained by Clean Energy for the next 10 years, will fuel
  approximately 175 buses, which are expected to consume a total of 2
  million GGEs of CNG annually.
• Clean Energy extended its maintenance contract with Santa Cruz
  Metropolitan Transit District (Santa Cruz Metro) for an additional 5
  years. The maintenance
  services support a station that fuels Santa Cruz Metro’s 100 CNG
  buses used throughout the county.
• Clean Energy customer MV Transportation was awarded a CNG bus contract
  with Los Angeles World Airports. The 14 CNG buses will fuel
  exclusively at Clean Energy stations.
• The City of Long Beach recently announced the purchase of over 100
  additional light- and medium-duty CNG vehicles that will fuel at two Clean
  Energy stations in the city.

Trucking

• Long-time customer, Dillon
  Transportation, has signed a new agreement with Clean Energy to
  fuel its heavy duty trucks in Texas with Redeem™. Dillon currently
  operates 72 CNG and liquefied natural gas (LNG) trucks out of Dallas,
  San Antonio, Midland and Houston which now fuel with Redeem to meet
  its customers’ sustainability goals. In 2015, Dillon’s fleet consumed
  1.1 million GGEs of natural gas in Texas.
• Raven
  Transport will deploy an additional 10 new LNG tractors out of
  Clean Energy’s Fort Worth, Texas, station starting in early March,
  which are expected to consume approximately 220,000 GGEs annually. The
  fueling contract runs through 2020.
• Blackrock Logistics, based out of Pleasanton, Calif., and new
  customer, has deployed 10 CNG trucks for its fleet and will be fueling
  at Clean Energy’s Fontana, Calif., station. The 3-year fueling
  agreement represents approximately 110,000 GGEs of CNG each year.

Refuse

• Clean Energy will design, build, lease and operate a new station in
  Orange County, Fla., for FCC, a multi-national construction firm that
  was awarded a refuse collection contract with the county. FCC has
  deployed 46 CNG trucks for that contract and will be fueling at Clean
  Energy’s Orlando International Airport station until the new station
  is completed. FCC is anticipated to consume close to 410,000 GGEs per
  year.
• Clean Energy has signed a contract to design and build two stations
  for Recology Inc., one of the largest private refuse fleets in the
  country. In Brisbane, Calif., Clean Energy will design and build a
  time-fill and fast-fill station to support Recology’s current fleet of
  64 CNG trucks, and be able to support their growth to 200 trucks in
  the future. At Recology’s Gilroy, Calif. station, Clean Energy will
  design and build a time-fill station to support 50 CNG trucks.
• Harrison Brothers Enterprises has signed a station design and build
  contract with Clean Energy to support their fleet of 13 CNG refuse
  trucks. The station will include 24 fueling hoses and have the
  capacity to fuel over 100 trucks, supporting the refuse haulers plans
  to expand their use of CNG as their fueling solution of choice.

Natural gas fuel costs less than gasoline or diesel, depending on local
market conditions. The use of natural gas fuel also reduces greenhouse
gas emissions up to 21 percent. In addition, nearly all natural gas
consumed in North America is produced in North America.
