Clean Energy Secures Contract from New Jersey's Atlantic County Utilities Authority to Build and Maintain New Public Access Comp

SEAL BEACH, Calif., Nov 20, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
CLNE | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- The Atlantic County Utilities Authority (ACUA), a southern New
Jersey-based services authority providing waste management and recycling
services in Atlantic County, has awarded a contract to Clean Energy
Fuels Corp. (Nasdaq: CLNE | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) to design, build, and maintain a new public
access compressed natural gas (CNG) fuel station. The facility will
operate 24/7 to support ACUA's growing fleet of CNG refuse trucks, as
well as municipal and private CNG fleet vehicles in the area.

Committed to helping preserve environmental quality, ACUA will
transition its fleet of refuse collection trucks from diesel to
clean-burning natural gas power. Natural gas produces up to 23 percent
lower greenhouse gas emissions than diesel fuel in heavy-duty vehicles,
and up to 30 percent lower greenhouse gas emissions than gasoline fuel
in light-duty and medium duty vehicles.

ACUA has secured a $1.9 million award from grant funds allocated by the
Department of Energy's Clean Cities Recovery Act, which will help defer
the costs of constructing the fast-fill CNG station and acquiring new
CNG refuse collection trucks. ACUA serves commercial and residential
customers in South New Jersey's Atlantic County, which includes Atlantic
City. The new Clean Energy CNG fuel station will be located on ACUA
property in Egg Harbor Township. Construction is slated to begin early
in 2010.

James Harger, Clean Energy Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing
Officer, said, "We are delighted to have this opportunity to work with
the Atlantic County Utilities Authority to support their efforts to curb
harmful air pollution and global warming emissions. The Authority is an
established environmental leader -- a fact that is clearly demonstrated
by their decision to opt for clean, green natural gas fuel for its
refuse fleet."
