LAKE FOREST, Calif., April 7, 2021 /CNW/ -- Quantum Fuel Systems (Quantum), a fully integrated alternative energy company, has been selected by Certarus Ltd. ("Certarus") to deliver more industry leading virtual pipeline trailers for natural gas in 2021. With a total value of approximately $10 million, the supplemental order brings Certarus' total investment in trailers to be delivered in 2021 to nearly $32 million.
Quantum's VPLite45/40' trailers have a gaseous capacity of approximately 472,000 standard cubic feet, and industry-leading hauling capability for a 40-foot container, and weigh less than 59,000 pounds fully loaded.
