News... AMERIgreen Energy hosts Fleet Footprint Event AMERIgreen Energy, in conjunction with Clean Cities of New Jersey & Pennsylvania, recently hosted “The Fleet Footprint Event: Emissions Requirements and the New Energy Landscape” in Morristown, NJ. The event presented an assessment of all transportation fuels/energy so fuel dealers and their fleet customers can use the information to make smart, cost-effective decisions in order to support new emissions goals. With so much uncertainty facing the energy industry, change is the only constant. The event represented all alternative fuel technologies taking root in the diesel space. Attendees learned from and interacted with industry experts and experienced fleet managers. They presented options and content to incorporate existing equipment to navigate the changes and avoid unexpected costs as they adapt in the face of impending emissions mandates. Plans are being made to extend the program to educate additional fleets in the region. American Energy Coalition announces Wildcatters Club The American Energy Coalition (AEC) announced a new class of supporters called the “Wildcatters Club.” The coalition has enjoyed strong broad-based support from every segment of the heating oil industry, and this construct attempts to spotlight and recognize the efforts of individual contributors. To help put it on firm, long-term financial footing, the AEC, through its Investment Committee, co-chaired by Brian Coyne and Kevin Beckett, is looking to encourage this group to make their contributions recurring by using the automatic monthly credit card donation feature provided on the AEC website. The creation of The Wildcatters Club does not replace the need for continued support from AEC’s corporate donors, but it does demonstrate a personal commitment from the thousands of hardworking heating oil professionals in support of an industry that supports them.To join the Wildcatters Club, visit: www.americanenergycoalition.com.
