PERC’s Quick-Connect Nozzle Fleet Incentive Ends June 30

“We’ve seen a positive response from owners and operators since we expanded the program to include fleets in March,” said Greg Kerr, director of research and development for PERC. “Fleets have used the nozzle incentive to improve their refueling experience while significantly reducing emissions compared to older nozzles. The good news is there’s still time for fleet managers considering a nozzle upgrade to receive some financial assistance if they apply soon before the program sunsets at the end of June.”

Unlike older nozzle designs, quick-connect nozzles can be operated with one hand and may not require the user to wear protective eyewear or gloves, making the experience much like a conventional fuel nozzle.

Originally launched in November 2015, the incentive program was initially only available to propane retailers. The new double incentives of $100 per tank-side connector and $1,000 per hose-end connector were expanded on March 1, to further help fleet owners replace their current refueling technology.

Are You Tracking Your Fleet's True Total Cost of Ownership?

Bobit Business Media surveyed 190 fleet professionals and found that while most fleets are tracking costs, fragmented systems and data gaps are keeping true TCO visibility out of reach.
