Proven Success at the Port of Los Angeles

As ports across Southern California look for cleaner, more reliable ways to keep up with increasing container volumes, one major terminal is demonstrating what is possible with propane.

At the Port of Los Angeles, West Basin Container Terminal (WBCT) has transitioned its entire yard tractor fleet to propane. The result is cleaner operations, lower fuel costs, and dependable performance that supports demanding, around-the-clock activity.

After evaluating diesel, natural gas, and electric options, WBCT selected propane to meet strict emissions standards without compromising throughput. The terminal continues to benefit from significant operational and environmental gains, including:

  • Lower operating costs: A 25 percent reduction in total fuel spend, delivering the lowest cost per operational hour.
  • Cleaner performance: A 99.9 percent reduction in NOx emissions, 75 percent fewer total hydrocarbons, and up to 74.7 percent lower lifecycle CO2 with renewable propane.
  • Full-duty capability: Diesel-like power that supports nonstop container-handling demands.
  • Fast refueling: Ten-minute refills that keep equipment moving.
  • Energy resilience: Independent fueling that avoids grid-related downtime.

WBCT proves that propane delivers the performance and reliability modern terminals require.

“The equipment matches diesel performance, refuels quickly, and avoids the grid challenges we would face with electric.”

– Matt Sentell, VP of Operations, WBCT
