A brief description of the institution’s efforts to support alternative fuel and power technology in its motorized fleet:
In FY13 Emory reduced the number of gasoline powered vehicles in the fleet. We also replaced old vehicles with FLEX fuel vehicles, electric Low Speed Vehicles (LSV’s), and smaller, high MPG gasoline efficiency vehicles (e.g. Transit Connects). In FY14 we are working to do more right sizing and are looking at expanding alternative options for vehicle replacement.
