Welcome, from Pittsburgh Region Clean Cities!
January 28th, 2009
Hello and welcome! Here’s a little information on who PRCC is and what we’re working to accomplish.
Pittsburgh Region Clean Cities (PRCC) is a nonprofit membership organization designed to accomplish the following objectives:
- Build and support the infrastructure needed for a strong alternative fuel and alternative vehicle market in Western Pennsylvania.
- Serve the needs of its member organizations through education, business consulting, development/grant writing, and management of Federal and State-funded projects.
- Serve as the designated regional organization for all US Department of Energy Clean Cities Program initiatives, including project funding.
In the next year, PRCC will be expanding rapidly to address the market need for cheap alternative fuel and the transition to alternative fuel vehicles. Though oil prices are lower at this time than they were last year, the market is volatile. Federal and State agencies recognize that too much of our Economy is dependent on foreign energy, so initiatives to reduce that dependence will be more prevalent and better funded in the next ten years.
