Opportunities for business and government fleets interested in switching to cleaner, more efficient fueling.
Below we have highlighted funding opportunities for business and government fleets interested in switching to alternative fuels. If you cannot find what you are looking for, give us a call or send us an email, and we will be happy to help.
The principal goal of this RFA is to select organizations that will become beneficiaries under our current projects funded through EPA’s Clean Diesel program. These projects (approximately $1,300,000 in funds) will be authorized to begin work this spring.
A secondary goal of this RFA is to select co-applicants to EPA’s new FY21 competitive grant opportunity. Selection for the latter opportunity does not guarantee beneficiary funding, since our available funding depends on EPA’s award selections.
MEC’s priority goals for applicant selection include reduced air emissions affecting vulnerable populations, reduced use of petro diesel, and beneficiary participation in outreach and public awareness campaigns.

MEC and its Clean Cities Coalitions keep a project bank for alternative (alt.) fuel and other clean transportation projects, including alt. fuel refueling and recharging infrastructure, alt. fuel vehicle purchase and/or conversions, and clean diesel retrofits. Current submissions will form the basis for any future funding opportunity proposals MEC makes on behalf of the region or on behalf of individual project sponsors. Proposals may be for DOE Clean Cities funding opportunities, EPA Clean Diesel opportunities, state-based opportunities, or otherwise.
MEC requires that all projects included in each application decrease dependence on petroleum by increasing the use of alternative fuels and advanced technologies and/or decreasing diesel emissions. Submit your project ideas to Anissa Parra-Grooms.
