As one of Clean Fuels Ohio’s main initiatives, the Ohio Green
Fleets program promotes the use of efficient technologies and
alternative domestic fuels by helping fleets that ask for it and
recognizing those that deserve it. The goal of the program is
threefold: to educate fleets about the range of available
technologies and fuels, to advise fleets in crafting greener
policies, and to recognize fleets that are successfully moving
toward increased efficiency and alternative energy.
Achieving recognition as an Ohio Green Fleet is not easy. In order
to qualify a fleet must provide data that demonstrates measurable
reductions in emissions and petroleum use. Using EPA based tools to
quantify this information, fleets are designated at either a one,
three, of five star level according to the proportion of overall
emissions and petroleum use reductions attained.
Through programs like Ohio Green Fleets, Clean Fuels Ohio strives
to improve air quality and public health as well as encourage the
sustainable use of non-petroleum domestic fuels to grow America’s
economy and break our dependence on imported oil. Visit:
