Each year, Clean Cities Coalitions nationwide collect information on the use of cleaner transportation options in order to document the growing use of alternative fuels, vehicles, and fuel saving techonologies. The Clean Fuel Partnership wants to recognize your fleet's efforts to lead the transition to cleaner transportation in southeast Louisiana! To see what our fleets accomplished in 2010, read the Clean Fuel Partnership's 2010 Annual Report. As the local Clean Cities Coalition, one responsibilities of the Southeast Louisiana Clean Fuel Partnership is to track the number of fleets using alternative fuel vehicles. All Clean Cities Coalitions perform this task so we can annually report the millions of gallons of gasoline that are displaced nationwide. To do this, however, we need your help identifying the alternative fuels and vehicles used in our region. If your fleet included alternative fuels and/or vehicles or fuel saving techonologies or policies in 2011, please complete the SLCFP 2011 Annual Report- Fleet Information Excel spreadsheet. All fleets that submit their clean transportation information by February 29, 2012, will be recognized at an upcoming Regional Planning Commission meeting.
Annual Survey FAQs: Who should complete the survey? We are collecting data on fleet operations that included any of the following during the past year (January to December 2011): | · Biodiesel | · Hydrogen | | · Ethanol | · Electric Vehicles | | · Natural Gas | · Hybrid Vehicles | | · Propane | |
I reduced my energy and fuel use in other ways, should I complete a survey? Yes! Fuel and energy savings comes in many forms, and we are equally interested in recognizing you for other methods you have used to save fuel in your transportation fleet. Please contact us directly if you have implemented other energy saving technologies, such as: | · Idle reduction policies | | | · Fuel savings policies | | | · Alternative power units (APUs) | | | · Emission control devices | |
Why should I complete the survey? All survey respondents will be recognized as Clean Fleet Leaders at an upcoming Regional Planning Commission meeting. In addition, the data helps to garner support for the work of Clean Cities Coalitions, which may result in increased funding for local clean transportation projects. What do you do with the data? All 87 Clean Cities Coalitions collect the same data so we can annually report the total gasoline gallons equivalent that are displaced throughout the nation in a given year. The National Renewable Energy Laboratory compiles this data in an annual report—the Clean Cities Annual Metrics Report—which is available on the Clean Cities website: http://www1.eere.energy.gov/cleancities/accomplishments.html. As with all data we collect, your contact information will not be shared for any other purpose. How do I complete the survey? Information can be submitte using the SLCFP 2011 Annual Report- Fleet Information Excel spreadsheet. The two tabs that are most likely to apply are Alternative Fuels & Vehicles and Fuel Economy Improvements which includes hybrid vehicles. To use the spreadsheet: 1) Save the spreadsheet to your computer. 2) Open the spreadsheet and enter in the applicable information directly onto the spreadsheet. 3) Save your information 4) Email the completed spreadsheet with your contact information to:
