Design for World’s only Non-Lubricated Compressor Designed for
Scalability
Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (NASDAQ: CLNE), the world’s largest
manufacturer of non-lubricated Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)
compressors, today introduced the most advanced heavy-duty
non-lubricated compressor for the natural gas fueling market. The
CleanCNG™, developed by engineers at Clean Energy’s subsidiary
Clean Energy Compression in Chilliwack British Columbia,
incorporates revolutionary improvements in compressor design and
intelligent engineering, resulting in ultra-low vibration and noise
in a compressor that is unparalleled in scalability, parts
commonality and overall performance.

The CleanCNG™ is the culmination of 35 years in leadership in
the compressor industry and the result of a complete ground-up
re-engineering of the CleanCNG Standard.
The new compressor features:
- Standardized & Modular
Construction. Streamlined modular engineering improves initial
specification and cost-effectiveness, quicker delivery time and
more reliable operation with extended service intervals.
Specifically designed for expansion, the CleanCNG™ is available in
150 HP – 300 HP configurations.
- Ultra-Low Vibration & Noise.
At 75 dBA @ 3m, low operating noise is a standard feature of the
CleanCNG™, making it suitable for even residential neighborhood
installations. Vibration measurements exceed API 618 and
recommended industry guidelines.
- Scalable by Design. CleanCNG™ is
the only natural gas compressor whose control systems, assembly and
enclosure are designed and built to be mated together in an
expandable manner. Proprietary heat management ensures that heated
air is not recirculated between compressors, and performance
remains consistent regardless of the number of compressors.
“The CleanCNG™ is a revolutionary product in the compression
industry. We went back to the drawing board and reengineered the
product with our customers in mind,” said Andrew Littlefair. “We
were able to deliver a product that can be built more efficiently,
and maintain the highest levels of compression performance
available anywhere in the industry today.”
TransLink, the regional transit authority to Metro Vancouver,
B.C., and the first Canadian transportation provider to achieve
Platinum sustainability status from the American Transportation
Association, recently purchased six of the new CleanCNG™ units.
“We were impressed with the CleanCNG™ because it offers us the
low oil carry-over we count on but also a significant opportunity
to decrease capital and operating costs because of simpler
deployment and improved serviceability,” said Joe Buck, Senior VP
of Acquisition at TransLink. “Longer-term, the CleanCNG™ offers the
most scalable platform available, which will allow us to expand as
needed to meet our growing fleet fueling requirements.”
Clean Energy Compression facilities meets all ISO 9001:2008
Quality Management System requirements. CleanCNG compressors are
available using a variety of cylinder configurations and inlet
pressures. Multiple compressor systems, using two or three modular
compressor packages that can be integrated together on-site, offer
higher overall flow rates and system redundancy.
Clean Energy Compression is the only exclusive manufacturer of
non-lubricated natural gas compressors in the world and this
exclusive results in some of the lowest oil carry-over in the
industry. Clean Energy compressors avoid the contamination
resulting from injected oil in competitive lubricated designs and
the CleanCNG™ delivers exceptionally clean oil carry over of less
than 5 parts per million.
