A brief description of the institution’s efforts to support alternative fuel and power technology in its motorized fleet:
The University is actively seeking alternative transportation solutions for the fleet as we replace units. There is an effort underway to purchase 100% electric 12-passenger vans that will reduce the number of gas powered 6-passenger vans in use now. We have tested and evaluated 100% electric units of varying sizes.
