As government regulations and incentives for using biodiesel have increased, many municipalities are switching to using biofuels in their fleets in order to reduce emissions and work toward near-term carbon intensity reduction targets.

What could be better than reducing soot and carbon emissions from our garbage and dump trucks by using Wisconsin-made Chevron Renewable Energy Group biodiesel, made from Wisconsin soybeans? That’s about as circular as you can get,” said Mahanth Joishy, Superintendent of Fleet Services for Madison.

Learn why biodiesel is playing a major role in Madison's lower carbon plan, and how their fleet is performing.

Additional Information

For more than 20 years, the people who design, build, use and maintain the work trucks and equipment the world relies on have gathered every March to see the industry’s latest products and technology, learn from one another and discuss how to improve the future.

What started as a trade show has evolved to meet the changing needs of the industry. The event has expanded beyond the walls of Indiana Convention Center to encompass hotels, restaurants, sports arenas, concert venues and the streets that connect them. From Monday to Friday, its energy, scale and intensity encompass the city — making Work Truck Week a one-of-a-kind industry experience.

Propane, also known as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG or LP-gas) or autogas, has been used worldwide as a vehicle fuel for decades. Stored under pressure inside a tank, propane turns into a colorless, odorless liquid. As pressure is released, the liquid propane vaporizes and turns into gas that is used for combustion. An odorant, ethyl mercaptan, is added for leak detection.

Propane has a high octane rating and excellent properties for spark-ignited internal combustion engines. Propane is produced as a by-product of natural gas processing and crude oil refining. It accounts for about 2 percent of the energy used in the U.S. Uses include home and water heating, cooking and refrigerating food, clothes drying, powering farm and industrial equipment and drying corn. Rural areas that do not have natural gas service commonly rely on propane. The chemical industry uses propane as a raw material for making plastics and other compounds. Less than 2 percent of U.S. propane consumption is used for transportation fuel.

Propane is considered an alternative fuel under the Energy Policy Act of 1992. According to the Propane Education and Research Council, there are more than 270,000 on-road propane vehicles in the U.S. Many are used in fleet applications, such as police cars, shuttles and school buses.

The development of new, light- and medium-duty propane vehicles has surged in recent years for fleet use. Propane vehicles can either be conversions from gasoline vehicles or purchased from original equipment manufacturers.
