Services & Capabilities. Fuel Solutions, Inc. is a consulting and engineering firm serving public- and private-sector vehicle fleet operators. Since 1994, our firm's mission has been to furnish fleet owners with consulting, engineering and design services that provide safe, efficient and cost-effective alternative- and conventional-fueling infrastructure. Service areas include:

Design-Build

Prepare preliminary design drawings for fueling infrastructure with accompanying comprehensive specifications calling for construction contractor to prepare final design-drawing package and obtain plan-check approval. Alternative to fully engineered design can add flexibility, reduce costs, and reduce time for construction. Includes bid and construction support, submittals review, and verification of construction and completeness.  » Learn More

Engineered Design

Prepare complete design drawings for fueling infrastructure utilizing AutoCad® and Micro Station® CADD systems, including structural, electrical, mechanical/process and civil drawings. All drawings are PE-sealed and plan-check ready. Prepare accompanying equipment and construction specifications in CSI format. All design documents are prepared in compliance with all NFPA, UFC, NEC, API, ASTM, and related codes and design standards. Includes bid and construction support, submittals review, and onsite review of construction.  » Learn More

Design-Build-Maintain-Operate (DBMO)

Fuel Solutions is highly experienced with this unique approach. We prepare specifications that call for a turnkey contractor to provide entire facility, to include some or all initial capital as required, as well as final design. Following construction, contractor is required to maintain and operate facility per the fueling-performance specifications for an extended term - including liquidated-damages incentives, and is paid based on actual CNG consumed by owner. Our firm has successfully implemented this strategy for 12 procurements covering 18 CNG & LNG facilities, including at Los Angeles County MTA, NYCTA, MBTA-Boston and city of Burbank, CA. Includes bid and construction support, submittals review, performance testing, and verification of construction and completeness.  » Learn More

Includes engineered plans and equipment specifications for methane detection, fire protection, HVAC modifications, shunt trips for electrical power, and integrated PLC controls. Also includes bid and construction support, submittals review, and verification of construction and completeness.  » Learn More

Objective Analysis

Fuel-neutral needs analysis and recommendation. This analysis typically includes cost-benefit and expense-differential modeling, covering capital, operating-maintenance, emissions reductions, and life-cycle costs between competing fuels (i.e. ULS clean diesel vs. CNG). Fuel Solutions has no outside or conflicting relationships.

Additional Services

Fuel Solutions also has experience with accident investigations and safety inspections, as well as with various public-sector grants, relevant mandates and regulatory issues, fleet analysis (i.e. fuel efficiency, cost effectiveness, emission-reduction analysis), fueling and safety training, evaluation of equipment and fueling facilities, gas-commodity procurement, and public-awareness issues.
