VANCOUVER - Westport Innovations Inc. (TSX:WPT) said Monday that El Toro Export LLC of El Centro, Calif., has ordered 15 heavy-duty liquefied-natural-gas-fuelled trucks with Westport's high-pressure direct-injection system.
The dollar value to the Vancouver-based developer of clean-diesel technology was not disclosed.
Westport said El Toro, an agricultural processing company, will use the trucks as part of its 30-truck fleet hauling commodities from the Imperial Valley.
"El Toro represents the third export business in southern California to see the value proposition Westport's LNG system provides customers," stated Westport president Michael Gallagher.
"The environmental and economic benefits of clean, low-carbon, and domestic LNG are proving attractive to an increasing number of truck fleets."
