Dallas - Fort Worth, TX, December 7, 2009 – Three local propane retailers have joined national alternative fuel vehicle conversion and fueling network Alliance AutoGas. As Alliance AutoGas partners, these companies will work with public and private vehicle fleets to convert vehicles from conventional gasoline to propane AutoGas – a cleaner, less expensive and almost entirely domestic alternative vehicle fuel. Propane AutoGas is the most widely used alternative vehicle fuel in the world.

Alliance AutoGas provides America’s fleets with a truly turn-key alternative fuel solution that includes:

•    Vehicle conversion equipment and labor
•    Fueling station on-site at fleet base
•    Safety and operational training for fleet personnel
•    Year-round fuel provision
•    Ongoing technical support

The three new Alliance AutoGas partners are:

•    Propane Bottle Service (serving Fort Worth & surrounding areas)
•    Huffhines Gas (serving Dallas & surrounding areas)
•    Henderson Oil & Propane (serving Denton, Justin & surrounding areas)

These companies, all locally owned and operated, will provide fuel service and support for Alliance AutoGas fleet customers throughout the Dallas – Fort Worth area, including Denton, Justin, Waxahachie, Cleburne, Greenville and Weatherford.

“The propane vehicle market is expanding rapidly, and Alliance AutoGas is really pioneering the turn-key approach to alternative fueling,” says Bill Clinkscale, owner of Henderson Oil & Propane. “It’s exciting to come on board as an Alliance AutoGas partner, because we know we can really make a difference across the greater Dallas – Fort Worth area. We can save fleets money and we can cut down on emissions, all while using a fuel that’s almost entirely produced here in the US.”

Propane Bottle Service, Huffines Gas and Henderson Oil & Propane will work with Alliance AutoGas to provide an integrated chain of vehicle conversions, clean fueling stations at fleet home bases, year-round fuel supply and safety & technical support.

Ideal candidates for propane conversion include taxis, law enforcement and municipal vehicles, limousines, utility company vehicles and many others.

Fleets that convert to propane AutoGas can expect:

•    Lower fuel costs
•    Significantly reduced greenhouse gas emissions
•    Less dependence on foreign oil (90% of propane is produced in the U.S.)
•    Ability to integrate positive green messaging into their communications

These three companies and Alliance AutoGas will immediately begin discussions with local and regional vehicle fleets interested in converting vehicles to propane AutoGas.
