OPAL Fuels Names Brian Stupp Chief Revenue Officer to Drive Growth in Fuel Station Services Business
OPAL Fuels (Nasdaq: OPAL), a leading player in the renewable energy and clean transportation sector, has announced the appointment of Brian Stupp as Chief Revenue Officer (CRO) for its Fuel Station Services division, effective November 5, 2025. The move underscores the company’s ongoing commitment to expanding its renewable and compressed natural gas (RNG/CNG) fueling network for heavy-duty transportation and advancing its position as a key enabler in the decarbonization of the trucking industry.
In his new role, Mr. Stupp will oversee all aspects of sales, marketing, and business development, including the cultivation of strategic channel partnerships. His appointment comes at a pivotal time as OPAL Fuels accelerates efforts to scale its downstream fueling infrastructure, meet the rising demand for low-carbon fuel alternatives, and strengthen its leadership in the renewable natural gas market.
“We are thrilled to welcome Brian, an accomplished executive with deep expertise in marketing, brand strategy, and business transformation,” said Adam Comora, Co-Chief Executive Officer of OPAL Fuels. “Brian’s extensive experience in the logistics and heavy-duty trucking sectors comes at a crucial time, as RNG and CNG are set to supersede diesel and reshape the Class 8 trucking market. His proven success at Saia, where he helped drive significant growth and profitability, along with his leadership across diverse industries, will be instrumental as OPAL Fuels continues to expand our fuel station services business, execute against our strategic objectives, and capitalize on the growing adoption of RNG and CNG.”
A Strategic Appointment Aligned with Industry Growth
Mr. Stupp joins OPAL Fuels as the company is rapidly expanding its network of RNG and CNG fueling stations across North America. As regulatory pressure and customer demand increasingly drive the shift toward lower-carbon transportation solutions, OPAL Fuels has positioned itself at the forefront of this transformation by providing vertically integrated solutions—from RNG production to distribution and fueling infrastructure.
The company’s Fuel Station Services business plays a critical role in this strategy, offering comprehensive solutions that include design, construction, operation, and maintenance of RNG/CNG fueling stations for heavy-duty fleets. Stupp’s leadership will be key to scaling this segment, forging new partnerships with fleet operators, and ensuring OPAL Fuels remains a trusted partner in the transition to sustainable trucking.
A Proven Leader in Business Transformation
Mr. Stupp brings over three decades of experience spanning trucking, logistics, fintech, manufacturing, and consumer goods. His career has been defined by his ability to transform marketing organizations into growth engines that deliver measurable financial results and enhance customer satisfaction.
Most recently, as Vice President of Marketing and Customer Service at Saia, a leading less-than-truckload (LTL) transportation company, Stupp led strategic initiatives that drove a twofold increase in sales and nearly sixfold improvement in profitability. His leadership was instrumental in reshaping Saia’s customer engagement model, aligning marketing strategies with operational goals, and positioning the company as a top-performing player in its industry segment.
Throughout his career, Stupp has earned a reputation for aligning leadership vision with data-driven marketing strategies, optimizing revenue streams, and creating exceptional customer experiences. His expertise in brand positioning and value-based pricing will help OPAL Fuels refine its commercial strategy as it scales to meet surging demand for cleaner fuel alternatives.
“I am excited to join OPAL Fuels at a critical moment for the company and the industry, and I look forward to driving accelerated growth and operational excellence,” said Mr. Stupp. “Throughout my career, I have aligned marketing and leadership to create measurable business results. I look to bring that same approach to OPAL Fuels as we build out a best-in-class operational platform that meets the evolving needs of our customers and partners.”
OPAL Fuels’ Vision for a Cleaner Energy Future
OPAL Fuels has established itself as a major player in renewable natural gas and clean transportation infrastructure, supporting the trucking industry’s transition toward low-emission energy sources. RNG and CNG are increasingly recognized as viable, scalable alternatives to diesel—offering immediate carbon reductions, cost advantages, and compatibility with existing heavy-duty vehicle technologies.
By integrating RNG production, pipeline injection, and downstream fueling, OPAL Fuels operates across the full clean-fuel value chain. The company’s facilities capture biogas from landfills, dairy farms, and wastewater treatment plants, upgrading it into RNG that can be used as transportation fuel. Each gallon equivalent of RNG used in trucking can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 90% compared to diesel, aligning with both corporate sustainability goals and government climate targets.
Stupp’s appointment further strengthens OPAL Fuels’ commercial leadership as it seeks to expand its footprint in the U.S. and Canada, deliver more fueling stations, and form partnerships with leading logistics and freight operators. With his combination of marketing acumen, operational insight, and leadership in customer-centric transformation, Stupp is expected to play a central role in accelerating the company’s growth trajectory and brand impact.
Building Momentum in the Renewable Fuel Market
The appointment also reflects OPAL Fuels’ confidence in the continued momentum behind RNG and CNG adoption. The company’s growth strategy is supported by increasing recognition of RNG as a reliable, cost-effective solution for decarbonizing heavy-duty transportation. As more fleet operators aim to meet emissions-reduction targets, OPAL Fuels’ ability to deliver turnkey fueling infrastructure and dependable fuel supply offers a strong competitive advantage.
Under Stupp’s leadership, the company plans to further enhance customer engagement, expand partnerships with fleet operators, and deepen relationships with renewable energy stakeholders. His emphasis on brand strategy and operational performance aligns with OPAL Fuels’ mission to make sustainable transportation both practical and profitable.
