The Pittsburgh Region Clean Cities Coalition helps to reduce petroleum consumption in the transportation sector by supporting the transition to cleaner fueling options.
Our mission is to advance the energy, economic and environmental security of the United States by reducing our reliance on petroleum, supporting local actions for clean fuel-transition and adoption, and lowering greenhouse gas emissions.
To meet these goals, we build and support the infrastructure needed for a strong alternative fuel and alternative vehicle market in Western Pennsylvania and we serve the needs of our coalition supporters through education, business consulting, development grant writing, and management of Federal and State-funded projects.
We are one of over 70 regionally-based Clean Cities organizations coordinated by the U.S. Department of Energy to fulfill this vision of a cleaner tomorrow.
