Alternative Fuel Promotion
Changing what powers a vehicle
- Encouraging the use of fuels that are cleaner than traditional gasoline or diesel, especially in fleets.
- Supporting infrastructure so people can use those fuels, like installing EV chargers or CNG fueling stations.
Fuel Economy Improvements
Using less fuel
- Improving how efficiently fuel is used in a vehicle
- Encouraging regular maintenance for better MPG
- Helping fleets choose more fuel-efficient models
- Optimizing routes and telematics
- Idle Reduction
Electric Vehicle (EV) Adoption
- EV infrastructure planning
- Outreach and education on charging and fleet transition
Fleet Transition Support
- Helping municipalities and private fleets shift to low- or zero-emission vehicles, such as partnerships with EPRI and their instructional research that facilitates the transition to hybrid or electric vehicles.
- Providing outreach to introduce people to grants, tools, and credits that allows their business and fleet to transition smoothly and cost-effectively to clean transportation.
First Responder & Technician Training
- Training firefighters, EMTs, and public safety personnel on how to safely respond to incidents involving EVs, hydrogen vehicles, CNG/LPG tanks, etc.
- Workshops and certifications for maintenance technicians working with new fuel systems
Workforce Development & Public Education
- Hosting webinars, workshops, and technical trainings for stakeholders, fleets, government entities, and the public—raising awareness around alternative fuels, advanced vehicles, idle-reduction, and energy-efficient transportation.
- Cross‑stakeholder communication
- Coordinated bid submissions for funding
- Joint media outreach & public recognition
Data Collection & Technical Assistance
- Reporting regional alternative fuel use
