Capital project: Reduce fossil fuel use in fleets | Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM):

Your capital project should reduce or avoid the use of fossil fuel in your municipal fleet.

All classes of vehicle are eligible for this funding. It applies to your fleet (i.e, all municipally owned vehicles such as police cruisers and fire trucks) and private vehicles that deliver municipal services (e.g., waste management or leased vehicles).

Examples of what you might implement:

• Purchasing properly sized municipal vehicles for various uses (e.g., fleet optimization)
• Alternative fueling infrastructure for vehicles providing municipal services (e.g., fast charging stations)
• Sustainable autonomous vehicle use for private or municipally owned vehicles
• Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) and alternative fuel fleet conversion (e.g., electric/hydrogen, biogas), especially medium and heavy-duty vehicles
• Intelligent transportation systems that reduce fuel consumption and promote transit use (e.g., transit signal priority, real-time travel information)
