NGVAmerica gets new President

NGVAmerica said that Matthew Godlewski has been named its new president.


Godlewski  will succeed Rich Kolodziej, who has served as NGVAmerica’s president since 1996 and has announced plans to retire.

The NGV market is poised for rapid expansion, and NGVAmerica has a critical role in that growth,” said Ron Eickelman, chairman of NGVAmerica and president, Agility Fuel Systems.

Matt is an experienced trade association executive who has a proven ability to lead effective teams and collaborate with industry allies. He will help elevate NGVAmerica’s mission and brand in the months ahead.

Godlewski comes to NGVAmerica at a time when the use of abundant, clean, American natural gas is seeing exponential growth. There is expected to be a 20 percent increase in the purchase of large trucks that run on natural gas over last year and the compound annual growth rate in the volume of natural gas used in transportation is estimated to exceed 11 percent through 2040.
