Description The University of California, Davis, examined whether the use of natural gas in the heavy-duty trucking sector would provide a cost savings to fleets and help California meet some of its air quality goals. The report also investigates the obstacles that would prevent heavy-duty truck fleets from transitioning to natural gas. The report concludes that a small, cost-effective intervention in select markets could support a transition to a commercially sustainable natural gas heavy-duty fueling system in California.
