Maine Clean Communities is a locally based government/industry partnership, coordinated by the US Department of Energy (DOE) and administered by the Greater Portland Council of Governmentsto expand the use of alternatives to gasoline and diesel fuel, and reduce the use of petroleum for transportation. The purpose of Maine Clean Communities is to promote alternative, or clean fuels, and clean fuel vehicles which advance clean air objectives and energy independence. Clean fuel vehicles benefit the economy by spurring development of new technologies and products, and by expanding clean fuel infrastructure. For more information about alternative fuels and vehicles, visit the DOE Clean Cities’ website.
The Maine Clean Communities Coalition is comprised of fleet managers, state and local officials, clean fuel providers, and other groups and individuals interested in promoting the use of clean fuels and clean fuel vehicles. Maine Clean Communities’ Stakeholders meet twice a year at various locations around the state to discuss issues and make decisions on projects. Maine Clean Communities presents workshops on various fuels and technologies several times a year. For information on the date and location of the next Stakeholder meeting click here.
