ASHEVILLE, N.C.--Altech-Eco Corporation of Asheville, North Carolina announced today that they have obtained a Certificate of Conformity (COC) from the EPA for their DEDICATED 2010 Ford Transit Connect compressed natural gas (CNG) conversion system. The “Dedicated” system means that the vehicle runs entirely on 100% natural gas, and needs absolutely zero gasoline ever. This is the only EPA-certified 2010 CNG system for the 2010 Transit Connect worldwide. Households or companies can now immediately receive a $4,000 Federal Income Tax Credit by purchasing this 100% natural gas Ford Transit Connect through Altech-Eco or its vendors.

Altech-Eco’s EPA approved Dedicated 2010 CNG Ford Transit Connect conversion system converts the Transit Connect to run exclusively on CNG (a bi-fuel option using both CNG and gasoline is also available for those wishing to run on either fuel, and is also fully EPA-approved) and the system is totally complete and includes manufacturer-rated CNG cylinders with fuel storage capacity starting at of 9.3 GGE (Gas Gallon Equivalent) and an extended option of 14.4 GGE’s, with a natural gas driving range of 240 - 400 miles and an average of 31 mpg on the highway and 25 in the city. The Transit Connect is perfect for many businesses like Taxi Fleets, Fortune 1000 Corporations, Airports and Municipalities, Wine or Flower Merchants, Catering and Delivery Services, Sports Enthusiasts, and also residential consumers. Altech-Eco provides a lifetime warranty on all conversion system emissions components. The CNG conversion system for the 2010 Ford Transit Connect is now available at select participating Ford dealerships and approved aftermarket conversion facilities, or by contacting Altech-Eco.

By using Altech-Eco’s EPA-approved CNG alternative fuel natural gas systems, US consumers will have the opportunity not only to help the environment but also to significantly reduce dependency on foreign oil, while saving significant money at the fuel pump, and obtaining a $4,000 Federal Tax Credit. CNG is cheaper as a fuel and has been proven to produce significantly less harmful emissions of pollutants like nitrogen oxides (NOx), particulate matter (PM), carbon dioxide (CO2), hydrocarbons (UHC), carbon monoxide (CO), and sulfur oxides (SOx) as compared to gasoline or diesel fuel.

Altech-Eco is a development stage private company, is a division of privately held TransEco Energy and is not yet publicly traded.
