Clean Transportation

Alternative fuels and advanced transportation technologies are the focus of the Clean Transportation Program at NC State University’s NC Solar Center. Collaborating with government, non-profit and businesses, the Clean Transportation team strives to improve air quality and energy security by diversifying fuel supplies and promoting economic development that utilizes local resources and cleaner technologies.

Through projects, the expanded use of biodiesel, ethanol, natural gas, propane, electricity and advanced transportation technologies such as diesel retrofits and idle reduction technologies are supported. Education and outreach is provided through fact sheets, news items, meetings, events, research dissemination and serving as a clearinghouse for funding opportunities.

Organizations in North Carolina that are demonstrating exemplary effort to reduce mobile emissions are highlighted through success stories and public recognition. Join our sponsors and get involved in your own community to help transition to cleaner transportation technologies and a more sustainable future for North Carolina.
