Testimonials
- The City of Santa Monica fleet has been using B20 since February of 2005 and has just moved to B50. Our plan is to go to B99 by the end of 2007. The Santa Monica Big Blue Bus, Los Angeles County’s second largest transit bus fleet, has been using B20 since October of 2006 in all of their diesel buses.Joe Gershen of Tellurian Biodiesel helped us learn about the benefits of biodiesel initially, and worked with our mechanics and operators to educate them about handling, use and operations issues. They are also managing a unique demonstration project to reduce NOx emissions through the use of SCR technology with city vehicles, in partnership with AQMD, ARB, NREL and CEC.
We have had virtually no problems with biodiesel and are excited about increasing its use in the city, which will help reduce greenhouse gas and other criteria emissions. With Tellurian Biodiesel’s help, Santa Monica has proactively been part of the solution and helped to reduce petroleum consumption in California.
