NH has two clean transportation programs that seek to reduce the emission of air pollution by automobiles, trucks, and buses and to reduce the state’s reliance on foreign oil supplies. The projects include:

• The Granite State Clean Cities Coalition, which is operated by the NH Department of Environmental Services and funded by the US Department of Energy. GSCCC is a partnership of local private and public fleets throughout the state. The project seeks to expand the use of alternative, cleaner burning fuels by private and public fleets and individuals. GSCCC offers training, equipment and vehicle demonstrations, and strategic planning services.

• The Alternative Fuel Vehicle Project, which is operated by the NH Department of Environmental Services and funded by Congestion Mitigation Air Quality funding from the NH Department of Transportation and the US Department of Transportation. The project provides funding to help state and municipal fleets purchase alternative fuel vehicles and infrastructure.
