Fuel Management

San Francisco leads U.S. cities with about 19% of its fleet being fuel-efficient and strong EV infrastructure, including requirements for EV chargers in new buildings with 20+ units. The city utilizes the Green Building Code for clean energy, and programs like Energy Watch and BayREN offer energy efficiency incentives toward cutting greenhouse gas emissions by…

Gas pump skimmers are illegal devices criminals attach to fuel pumps to secretly copy credit card data during a transaction. These skimmers record information from the card’s magnetic stripe, which thieves later use to create cloned cards or make fraudulent purchases and fuel thefts. Authorities in Santa Barbara County found out in February 2025 that…

Pour one full bottle of fuel injector cleaner into a near-empty gas tank, then fill up immediately with fresh fuel. Most bottles treat 10 to 15 gallons at roughly 1 oz per gallon, but always check the label for your specific product. For best results, repeat every 3,000 to 5,000 miles as part of your…

Poor fuel efficiency increases fuel and maintenance costs, shortens vehicle lifespan, and harms the environment. Only 12% to 30% of conventional vehicle fuel energy powers the vehicle, with the rest lost to drivetrain inefficiencies and accessories, contributing to higher greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution. Did you know that only 12% to 30% of the…

Effective fuel management is mandatory for the construction sector, the third-largest consumer of fuel in the U.S. as of 2022, consuming approximately 7% of total energy. It enhances profitability by tracking usage, reducing waste, optimizing machinery efficiency, and enabling cost savings through bulk purchases, fuel cards, trusted fuel delivery, and operational streamlining that reduces downtime.…

Diesel fuel quality testing, crucial for protecting engines and ensuring efficient performance, involves measuring the cetane number, sulfur content, density, distillation, and contamination levels like water and sediment. These tests help maintain engine longevity, reduce emissions, and prevent equipment damage, with compliance to ASTM D975 standards ensuring reliability and safety. Diesel fuel is vital in…
