Pioneer Clean Fleet Solutions Launches as First Company Dedicated to Leasing Low-Carbon Heavy-Duty Commercial Vehicles

Industry-first natural gas truck bundled leasing packages offering integrated fueling, service, and fleet management to unlock savings and accelerate return on investment

SEPTEMBER 10, 2025 - Pioneer Clean Fleet Solutions Inc. ("Pioneer CFS") announced its official launch as the first commercial truck leasing company specializing exclusively in deploying low-carbon technology to heavy-duty fleets, with next-generation compressed natural gas ("CNG") heavy-duty trucks as its first focus area. Through an integrated model that bundles vehicles with fueling, maintenance and advanced fleet management solutions, Pioneer provides fleets with an unrivaled path to achieve cost-per-mile savings and environmental benefits without sacrificing productivity.

"Fleets around the world are utilizing natural gas and renewable natural gas to help reduce operational costs and improve emissions" said CEO and Co-Founder Sam Gabbita. "Pioneer was built to eliminate the barriers to natural gas adoption in North America by delivering a turnkey leasing package that includes the trucks, the fuel, and the service support that is financially viable for the fleets."

Pioneer CFS has formed strategic relationships with Clean Energy Fuels Corp., Cummins Inc., and Hexagon Agility to unlock fuel supply, engine and fuel system technology, and customer care capability through competitive leasing packages. This helps heavy-duty truck fleets quickly and cost-effectively incorporate CNG trucks into their operations. Pioneer CFS also works with other leading manufacturers, national dealers, fuel suppliers and service providers to deliver integrated, tailored solutions to match the needs of fleet customers.

Pioneer CFS' core offerings include:

• Planning - collaboration on fleet goals, optimal enablement, and impact of NG on fleet operations.
• Leasing & Financial Services - attractively structured leases with financial and accounting flexibility.
• Fuel Supply & Logistics - tailored and reliable public, depot, or mobile access to NG and renewable natural gas ("RNG"), priced attractively relative to diesel.
• Uptime - core service support designed to maximize uptime and productivity including technology-enabled oversight for optimization and savings.

"Many markets around the world have higher adoption rates for CNG and RNG than the United States, yet the US market has an unparalleled combination of cost, availability, technology and infrastructure," said Executive Chairman and Co-Founder Dave Crompton. "Pioneer seeks to unlock adoption and enable fleets to achieve the same or better economic and environmental benefits here in the US."

For fleets with environmental sustainability goals, lower cost RNG can drastically reduce carbon emissions by over 300% as compared to diesel as it is made from organic waste.

Reliable, proven fueling infrastructure, and the advent of mobile CNG fueling can further simplify adoption of the new Cummins' heavy-duty X15N for various applications where smaller bore CNG engines weren't a viable option. With the X15N engine, and its high power and high torque, fleets can utilize natural gas deployments for higher demanding duty cycles more than ever before.

"Our hyper-focused model is designed for excellence," said President and Co-Founder Seung Baik. "Pioneer was built from the ground up to deliver the industry's most comprehensive and cost-effective natural gas truck leasing solution. From new deployments to our support and maintenance to remarketing, we are committed to ensuring long-term value for our customers."

With a nationwide team of experienced industry veterans in heavy-duty truck and engine manufacturing, CNG storage and fueling, and leasing and remarketing, Pioneer CFS has already begun working with fleets. Early deployments are targeted for delivery in the coming months across multiple regions in North America.
