Working to Reduce Petroleum Consumption in the Transportation Sector
Our Mission
At Vermont Clean Cities and Communities, our mission is to foster collaboration, promote equity, and advocate for clean transportation solutions that benefit all communities across the state. We are dedicated to creating a sustainable future where every Vermonter has access to clean and efficient transportation options.
The Vermont Clean Cities Coalition brings together stakeholders in the public and private sectors to deploy alternative and renewable fuels, idle-reduction measures, fuel economy improvements, and emerging transportation technologies.

Our History
The Vermont Clean Cities Coalition (VTCCC) was designated as a Clean Cities Coalition by the U.S. Department of Energy in 2001. Past and present stakeholders are numerous and diverse, consisting of both individuals and organizations. VTCCC activities have included maintaining information and databases, writing grant proposals, creating public awareness and interacting within the national network of Clean Cities programs.
Originally housed at the Snelling Center for Government, the Vermont Clean Cities Coalition found its permanent home at the UVM Transportation Research Center on July 1st, 2007. Since 2007, the coalition has helped with many events and provided resources to Vermont fleets looking to utilize alternative fuels.
Funding
The VTCCC is primarily funded through federal grants through the national Clean Cities program as well as, in-kind support from the UVM TRC. Over the years VTCCC has received grants from various governmental and non-governmental entities throughout the state of Vermont including the High Meadows Fund and the Public Service Department.
