ASHEVILLE, N.C., March 9 /PRNewswire/ -- The national propane vehicle conversion and fueling network Alliance AutoGas has announced partnerships with Donahue Gas and Productive Concepts, Inc. to bring alternative vehicle fuel solutions to public and private fleets in the Midwest. As Alliance AutoGas partners, these companies will work with Indiana fleets to convert vehicles from conventional gasoline to propane AutoGas. Converted fleets will join the more than 14.6 million vehicles worldwide running on clean, economical AutoGas.

Donahue Gas and Productive Concepts will provide Indiana fleets with a turn-key alternative fuel solution:

• Equipment and labor to convert vehicles from gasoline to AutoGas
• Propane AutoGas fueling station on site at fleet base
• Safety and operational training for fleet personnel

A third-generation family-owned business, Donahue Gas has served the propane needs of Central Indiana since 1938. Donahue offers commercial propane services, including forklift cylinder delivery; they also provide more than 2,000 families with a reliable, year-round propane delivery program to ensure customer satisfaction and peace of mind.

"Donahue Gas has always been committed to serving the community's propane needs," says Brian Donahue, Donahue Gas owner. "Our partnership with Alliance keeps us at the forefront of the quickly expanding AutoGas market."

Productive Concepts, an emerging leader in the alternative fuels industry, boasts the only U.S. production line capable of almost any alternative fuels conversion. Since its inception in 1999, Productive Concepts has focused on delivering the highest quality products and services at the best price, saving customers money while reducing emissions and extending the life of their fleet vehicles.  

Productive Concepts President Rob Lykins is eager to expand his company's offerings. "Our commitment has always been to bring customers the best in alternative fueling systems, and as an Alliance AutoGas certified conversion center partner we will continue to do just that."

"In partnering with Donahue Gas and Productive Concepts, Alliance makes it easy for Indiana fleets to access cleaner, domestically produced AutoGas," says Alliance AutoGas President Stuart Weidie.  "We're proud to enable fleets to fill up with a better vehicle fuel."

• Lower fuel costs
