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:

1. Build and support the infrastructure needed for a strong alternative fuel and alternative vehicle market in Western Pennsylvania.
2. Serve the needs of its member organizations through education, business consulting, development/grant writing, and management of Federal and State-funded projects.
3. 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.

What can PRCC do for me?

Our job at Pittsburgh Region Clean Cities is to help you understand the variety of incentives available to for using alternative fuels. We want to guide you through making a smart financial and environmental choice in thinking about your next vehicle purchase or fleet project.

If you have concerns or questions about alternative fuels, we can help you in the following ways:

1. We will keep you informed with our blog. Come to our site on a weekly basis, where we will update the main page with information on incentives for alternative fuels, research on fuels and vehicles, and anything else we come up with that is in the world of alt. vehicles.

2. We can direct you down the right path if you’re making a purchase. Shoot us an email (coordinator@pgh-cleancities.org) and we’ll try to answer any quick questions you have and connect you to our members if you need additional assistance.

3. We will help plan, fundraise for, and execute conversion and infrastructure projects of all sizes. Already an expert in alternative fuels and ready to take on a big project? Want to add alternative fuels to your station? Or, perhaps convert your fleet? Take a look at our membership page, then contact us and we’ll set up a time to meet with you.
