March 6, 2026. Nopetro Energy has extended its decade long partnership with LYNX, the Central Florida Regional Transportation Authority and will build a new compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling station in Kissimmee, made 100% from renewable natural gas (RNG). Expanded fueling capacity allows LYNX to scale service efficiently delivering reliable transportation to thousands of riders each day.
The new station will be located at 100 N. Alaska Ave., Kissimmee, FL 34741. It will feature two fueling lanes and two dispensers. Construction is expected to be completed by Aug. 31, 2026, with operations beginning shortly thereafter.
“Public transit agencies need fueling infrastructure that keeps pace with their growth,” said Jorge Herrera, CEO of Nopetro. “This new station strengthens LYNX’s ability to operate a modern, lower emission fleet while managing costs and maintaining reliable service.”
The Kissimmee station will further strengthen LYNX’s CNG infrastructure, enhancing reliability and improving operational efficiency. CNG continues to be a practical option for public transit systems because it offers lower, more stable pricing compared to diesel, reduced emissions and reliable performance for high mileage fleets. By expanding fueling infrastructure in Kissimmee, LYNX can support future service growth while maintaining operational efficiency.
Over the past 10 years, Nopetro has played a pivotal role in developing and maintaining LYNX’s CNG ecosystem, including infrastructure design and construction, maintenance facility build outs, fleet conversion initiatives and a revenue sharing model that delivers value to both organizations.
The new Kissimmee station builds on that foundation and reinforces the partnership’s focus on reliability and long term planning.
