of CNG Tanks  [Jan 8, 2014]

LAKE FOREST, Calif., January 6, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Quantum Fuel Systems Technologies Worldwide, Inc. (QTWW), a global leader in natural gas storage systems, integration and vehicle system technologies, today announced that it has been granted approval of its Type-IV Q-Lite® CNG tank technology, pursuant to United Nations ECE Regulation No. 110.  This approval allows a certain Quantum tank family to be sold into United Nations countries around the world.

This approval will allow Quantum to bring its highly successful large diameter CNG tank technology to Europe and Asia and will enable European and Asian trucking firms to realize the substantial operating cost reductions that many US fleets have demonstrated through the use of CNG as a transportation fuel.  

"We are excited to make our Q-Lite tank technology available to all UN countries and pursue opportunities outside of the North American market," said Mr. Brian Olson, President and CEO of Quantum.  “Other sizes of CNG storage tanks, which store up to 46.5 diesel gallon equivalents, are planned as well for United Nations certification.”

The Q-Lite technology has set standards for the optimization of carbon fiber, yielding the lightest tank in the industry.  Quantum's tanks also provide the greatest fuel capacity in a given packaging envelope.  These industry leading capabilities are incorporated in Quantum's product lines of both strap and collar mounted tanks, yielding the best value for its customers.

Quantum Delivers Advanced CNG Fuel Storage and Delivery Systems and Control Software for Heavy Duty Truck Aftermarket Program
14:05 20.03.14

PR Newswire

LAKE FOREST, Calif., March 20, 2014

LAKE FOREST, Calif., March 20, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Quantum Fuel Systems Technologies Worldwide, Inc. (NASDAQ: QTWW), a global leader in compressed natural gas (CNG) storage systems, integration and vehicle system technologies, today announced that it recently delivered several pre-production units of an advanced CNG fuel storage and delivery system, including the control software for the fuel system and engine, to ZHRO (ZHRO™ Solutions LLC, based in Chandler, Arizona) as part of an on-going development agreement between the two companies.  These systems are coupled with ZHRO's revolutionary natural gas injection/engine conversion system and are being used as part of a pre-production test fleet at ZHRO and will be used for both on-road testing on heavy duty trucks as well as bench testing.

To date, Quantum has received approximately $6.0 million in development contracts from ZHRO and the delivery of these pre-production units represents a continuation of the work to develop a fully-integrated CNG storage and fuel delivery system for robust and cost-effective aftermarket conversions of heavy duty diesel fleets to run on natural gas.  The fuel system module being developed by Quantum includes its industry-leading high capacity ultra-lightweight Q-Lite™ CNG fuel storage tanks, the integration of all the fuel delivery components and the control software to operate the fuel system.  In addition, Quantum is overseeing the development of the engine control software in order to operate the engine efficiently with ZHRO's innovative fuel injection system.

The production systems are planned to be delivered to ZHRO in the second half of 2014 and will leverage Quantum's decades of experience developing, validating, and commercializing production fuel systems and control software for natural gas, hydrogen and hybrid-electric OEM vehicles.

ZHRO has developed an operating and marketing model to accelerate the commercial launch of their breakthrough technology and has already contracted with a significant number of North American distributors for sales and installation of ZHRO's fuel injector/engine conversion system.

"We are excited about the delivery of these pre-production units and the overall development efforts as it marks a definitive path toward commercialization with ZHRO Solutions," said Brian Olson, President and CEO of Quantum.

"We are very pleased with Quantum's significant advancements toward the development and commercialization of our fuel system and we are excited to take the next step in testing the pre-production kits and move closer toward commercialization," said John Madrigal, COO of ZHRO Solutions, LLC.

Under a strategic development agreement, Quantum and ZHRO are developing a cost-effective, complete natural gas aftermarket system solution for the nation's estimated 4 million medium and heavy duty trucks currently running on expensive diesel fuel, enabling fleet operators to benefit from lower operating costs and a reduction in exhaust particulate matter and emissions made possible by a dedicated conversion to natural gas from diesel.

Quantum is utilizing almost 20 years of OEM level CNG experience. This new BOC CNG module has been developed in close cooperation with large fleet customers and OEMs and will be built at Quantum's CNG module production center in Lake Forest, California.

These compact BOC modules are a fully integrated 3,600 psi storage solution that can be installed in a matter of hours. System installation and service on new and used trucks will be supported by a growing network of CNG experienced truck dealers and truck service providers who partner with Quantum.

LAKE FOREST, Calif., May 6, 2014

LAKE FOREST, Calif., May 6, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Quantum Fuel Systems Technologies Worldwide, Inc. (NASDAQ: QTWW), a global leader in natural gas storage systems, integration and vehicle system technologies, today announced it has entered into a long-term agreement with Ryder System, Inc. (NYSE: R) for the purchase and supply of complete compressed natural gas (CNG) fuel systems that will help reduce costs and increase vehicle uptime for businesses that lease CNG trucks from Ryder. With the agreement, Ryder will purchase state-of-the-art CNG tank systems directly from Quantum and install them onto CNG-powered vehicles with a team of Ryder technicians using state-of-the-art industry procedures related to these systems. Natural gas tank storage systems are one of the most expensive components of a natural gas vehicle. By purchasing the systems direct, Ryder can pass savings onto its lease customers, ultimately delivering a faster return on investment for this natural gas vehicle technology. Ryder will be the first transportation company to use Quantum's OEM-quality CNG systems on a national scale. In addition to the purchasing agreement, Quantum and Ryder will work together to improve future fuel system designs, based on Ryder's market leadership and experience operating CNG vehicles in commercial truck applications.

"Next to the limited commercial fuel infrastructure, the biggest barrier to the broad adoption of natural gas vehicles is the initial cost of the technology," stated Ryder President of Global Fleet Management Solutions, Dennis Cooke. "This relationship will help make compressed natural gas vehicles more affordable and reliable, so more businesses can take advantage of their environmental and efficiency benefits."

Quantum is a global leader in CNG storage systems, integration and vehicle system technologies. Quantum produces one of the most innovative, advanced, and lightweight compressed natural gas storage tanks in the world. Ryder will be using Quantum's Q-lite™ CNG tank system, which is lighter than other tank systems on the market, making it highly effective in delivery applications where payloads have increased and on-board weight saving is essential. The high capacity systems are designed for superior reliability, helping to improve vehicle up-time. The adaptable model design is ideal for medium and heavy duty trucks, and provides exceptional cost, weight, and capacity (Diesel Gallon Equivalent - DGE). Ryder's maintenance team has worked with Quantum to develop comprehensive procedures to ensure that tank system installations will meet the highest industry standards.

"With Ryder, we can bring our leading-edge natural gas tank storage and system technology to a larger base of businesses that are looking to improve efficiencies, save on fueling costs, and get better performance from their natural gas fleets," said Brian Olson, President and CEO of Quantum. "Our Q-Lite™ natural gas storage module is gaining increasing market attention due to its storage efficiency and light weight characteristics that help to improve performance and increase fuel range in commercial trucking applications."

Ryder is the market leader in natural gas vehicle and maintenance solutions for the commercial transportation industry. Businesses can tap into Ryder's extensive knowledge of natural gas vehicle operations, expanding maintenance network, and its highly trained and experienced technicians, to ensure the safe operation, maintenance, and fueling of natural gas vehicles. Ryder's leasing and rental business model enables businesses to "test" the new technology with less risk of downtime, as well as insulate themselves from the unknown residual risk.

Ryder's natural gas fleet includes over 500 compressed and liquefied natural gas vehicles operating more than 20 million miles, and serving over 40 customers in California, New York, Texas, Arizona, Michigan, Utah, Georgia, and Louisiana. Ryder also operates two Liquefied to Compressed Natural Gas (LCNG) fuel stations at its maintenance facilities in Orange and Fontana, California.
