The new contract is valued at US.7 million and will cover the delivery of RNG fuel systems for heavy-duty trucks, including those equipped with the new 15-liter X15N natural gas engine.

UPS has been at the forefront of sustainable transportation, and this partnership with Hexagon Agility demonstrates their commitment to enhancing their fleet with innovative technologies like the X15N engine. Deliveries of the new RNG orders are expected to be completed by the end of the fourth quarter of 2024, with the majority scheduled for the second half of the year.

This extension of the contract underscores UPS’s dedication to reducing emissions and advancing environmentally friendly practices in its operations. By continuing to utilize RNG fuel systems, UPS is making strides towards a more sustainable future for the transportation industry.
