A brief description of the institution’s efforts to support alternative fuel and power technology in its motorized fleet:
Stanford's Marguerite bus fleet currently consists of 41 all-electric buses, which are heavily used. The remaining diesel buses, shuttles and vans are gradually being phased out. The remaining campus fleet vehicles are managed centrally by the Land, Buildings & Real Estate Department (LBRE) and are steadily moving towards plug-in electric and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles where the vehicle duties allow. The campus Fleet Manager has been implementing a strategic plan to move the campus fleet towards fully electric or non-motorized modes of transportation over the next several years. As part of that plan, LBRE has led a transition to bicycles and electric bicycles rather than adding new motorized vehicles in the fleet, and other departments have followed suit. LBRE now has 8 bikes in the motor pool: 6 priority pedal bikes, and 3 electric bikes. There are also 10 pedal bikes in the Science & Engineering Quad district and another 11 pedal bikes in the Cubberly Education Building district. Bikes will also be added in lieu of fleet vehicles at the other distributed LBRE districts across campus. There are also electric bikes in the LBRE shops: 1 in architecture trades, 1 in the plumbing shop, 1 in material management (used for parts deliveries) and 1 in events services. All electric bikes (except for the e-bike in events services) have GPS.
