VANCOUVER — Westport Fuel Systems Inc., a supplier of alternative fuel systems and components for the global transportation industry, has been designated as the supplier of liquified petroleum gas (LPG) systems to a global original equipment manufacturer (OEM).

This is in addition to the previously announced production supply agreement, adding new Euro 7 vehicle platforms planned for production by the OEM. This is forecasted to generate €63 million in total revenue from 2025 to 2028. This increases the revenue generated from LPG fuel system supply agreements for Euro 6 and 7 programs with this OEM to approximately €255 million.

“We are pleased to become the exclusive supplier of LPG systems to this leading OEM customer and look forward to continuing our commitment to deliver our LPG systems for their LPG-fueled vehicle platforms,” said David M. Johnson, chief executive officer of Westport Fuel Systems. “As a leader in providing a diverse portfolio of high-quality alternative fuel systems, we are driving cleaner performance and gaining market share, as LPG powered vehicles are a very affordable path to meet European regulations for lower emissions.”

LPG and bio-LPG, also known as propane or autogas, is an alternative fuel used to power light-, medium- and heavy-duty vehicles. LPG fueled vehicles are a cost-competitive low-emissions alternative to vehicles that use gasoline (petrol) or diesel, and the technology satisfies stringent regulatory requirements for emissions reductions. LPG fueled vehicles are permitted to drive in emissions-restricted traffic zones in Europe.
