Fueling Growth

UnpluggedCNG

IMW Industries got its start in 1912 as a blacksmith’s shop in British Columbia, Canada. Known then as Ironsides Machining & Welding (IMW), the company was an early adopter of Compressed natural gas (CNG and RNG, Renewable Natural Gas) and built its first fueling station in 1984. In 2020, IMW joined Clean Energy Fuels Corporation, North America’s top provider of natural gas for vehicle fleets and took on the name Clean Energy Compression.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

  • In addition to a lineup of CNG compressors, dispensers, gas control and storage systems for vehicle applications and bulk gas transportation, IMW Industries makes a product called UnpluggedCNG.
  • With the UnpluggedCNG, as the name suggests, it requires no connection to the power grid, instead compressor block is paired with a Cat® natural gas engine, ranging between 205-325 horsepower, that generates all the power necessary for natural gas compression.
  • There are several features that set the UnpluggedCNG apart from it's competition. Fewer oil changes, reducing maintenance, extending engine life and lowering operating costs, just to name a few.
  • Cat gas compression engines are known for their uptime and reliability, with more than two billion operating hours across industries. This is why using Cat engines were an obvious choice for IMW.
  • Caterpillar produces high-quality engines the same way CNG produces the top-notch products, which is why customers know they are getting quality with both brands.
  • With IMW Industries taking on world wide jobs, being part of the worldwide support network is critical, especially having the ability to reach remote locations. The Cat dealer network is able to offer world-class support that others simply cannot.
