FORWARDING WISCONSIN’S

FUEL CHOICE

• $500,000 two-year program.

• Designed to implement policy, barrier

reduction, training, and educational initiatives

to significantly expand the alternative fuels

market in Wisconsin.

• The program is a partnership between the

Wisconsin State Energy Office, Wisconsin

Clean Cities, and the Wisconsin State

Technical College System.

WISCONSIN SMART FLEET

PROGRAM

BENEFITS

Reduce Carbon Footprint

• Learn how to reduce harmful emissions,

increase energy security, and contribute

toward a growing economy in Wisconsin.

Meet Internal Economic Goals

• Learn how to reduce dependence on

petroleum-based fuels and ways to use

alternative fuels and technologies.

Smart Fleet Branding

• Promotion and outreach are part of the

program. It’s an opportunity for your

company to showcase your fleet.

Companies and governmental agencies talk a lot about being

“green” or working towards “sustainability.” Whichever buzz word

is applied means that, for most, the ultimate goals are to reduce

their carbon footprint, leave the world a better place for the next

generation, and meet their internal economic goals. To help

fleets meet these goals, the Wisconsin State Energy Office

(SEO) and Wisconsin Clean Cities (WCC) are setting out to

provide fleets with a planning tool and outline the different

options available for their specific situations. The SEO and WCC

are calling it the Wisconsin Smart Fleet program.

The Wisconsin Smart Fleet program is initially inducting fleets

with three or more vehicles, and is funded through a two-year

U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) grant called “Forwarding

Wisconsin’s Fuel Choice.” After the granting period, the program

will continue because the SEO and WCC firmly believe it can

make a difference for fleets. The fleets are already implementing

or will implement the use of alternative and renewable fuels,

advanced vehicles, and other petroleum reduction measures.

• Two-year regional $700,000+ DOE grant funded project.

• Designed to identify barriers in the implementation of CNG, propane, and

electricity as vehicle fuels.

• Regional Partnership with the Gas Technology

Institute and the Lake Michigan Consortium

(Wisconsin, Chicago, and Northern Indiana-

South Shore Clean Cities Coalitions).

GROWMARK, Inc.

• The Wisconsin Natural Gas Vehicle Fuel Roundtable is a stakeholder forum

created to provide information to businesses and citizens about natural gas

as a transportation fuel and identify opportunities to expand the use of

compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicles.

• The forum is coordinated by the Wisconsin State

Energy Office, Wisconsin Clean Cities, and an advisory

group made up of businesses from across the state.

• The goal of the forum is to expand the use of compressed natural gas,

liquefied natural gas and biogas as vehicle fuels in WI.

WISCONSIN NATURAL GAS FOR

TRANSPORTATION ROUNDTABLE

• The Wisconsin Propane for Transportation Roundtable is a stakeholder

forum created to provide information to businesses and citizens about

Propane Autogas as a transportation fuel and identify opportunities to

expand the use of propane vehicles.

• The forum is coordinated by the Wisconsin State

Energy Office, Wisconsin Clean Cities, and an

advisory group made up of businesses from

across the state.

PLUG-IN ELECTRIC VEHICLE

TASK FORCE

• The Task Force is a diverse group of 33 stakeholders that

are excited about PEVs with goals to grow the PEV market,

educate all audiences about PEVs, and provide

comprehensive resources about PEVs to residents in WI.

• To meet these goals, Task Force members work diligently to:

• Create solutions to barriers;

• Participate and promote related events or activities, put together educational and marketing

materials;

• Work closely with municipalities and private companies to promote PEV related policies and

practices;

• Seek funding to implement their solutions; and

• Recruit companies throughout WI to join the U.S. DOE Workplace Charging Program.

ECO-DRIVING FOR CLASS 8 OVER-

THE-ROAD TRUCKS (CMAQ GRANT)

• Partnership with WI Department of Natural

Resources and Waukesha County Technical

College.

• Over-the-road class 8 trucks eco-driving training

program that involves learning techniques to

maximize a vehicle's energy efficiency, reduce fleet

fuel consumption and vehicle miles traveled,

therefore increasing productivity, lowering fuel costs

and reducing greenhouse gas emissions in SE WI.

U.S. EPA

SMARTWAY PROGRAM

• Launched in 2004 by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)

• Public-Private Initiative between EPA, large and small trucking companies, rail carriers,

logistics companies, commercial manufacturers, retailers, and other federal and state

agencies.

• WCC supports SmartWay's efforts by promoting idle reduction and fuel efficiency methods

and technologies.

• WCC has several members that have benefited from

participation in the SmartWay program:

– Convenience Transportation (Kwik Trip)

– Contract Transport Services

– Paper Transport

– Skinner Transfer Corporation

– Sheehy Mail Contractors

– Time Transport

– Veriha Trucking

LAKE MICHIGAN CONSORTIUM

• In addition to collaborating with Clean Cities coalitions around the country and with regional

and national U.S. Department of Energy program leadership, Wisconsin Clean Cities works

especially close with the two other coalitions in the loosely constituted Lake Michigan Clean

Cities Consortium.

• To our South, Chicago Area Clean Cities, and to our Southwest, South Shore Clean Cities,

are WCC's steady partners in educational events and special conferences. If you find

yourself in the Chicagoland area or Northwestern Indiana area, we

encourage you to visit the other members of our consortium.

infrastructure sites and over 375 new alternative fuel vehicles in WI;

• Wisconsin Smart Fleets program, a program set out to provide fleets with alternative fuel planning tools and an

outline of different options available for their specific situation;

• Lake Michigan Corridor Alternative Fuel Implementation Initiative webinar series;

• Eco-driving training course for class 8 over-the-road trucks;

• Statewide planning for natural gas as an alternative fuel for transportation;

• EV Task Force electric vehicle infrastructure planning;
