Transportation : Alternative Fuel Vehicles
Alternative Fuel vehicles
Alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs), as defined by the Energy Policy Act of 1992 (EPAct), include any dedicated, flexible-fuel, or dual-fuel vehicle designed to operate on at least one alternative fuel. Alternative fuel vehicles come in a variety of vehicle models such as sedans, pickup trucks, sport utility vehicles, vans, shuttle buses, medium-duty vehicles (such as delivery trucks), heavy-duty buses, and heavy-duty trucks. AFVs can easily be used in consumer or fleet applications, and incentives are available to make them cost effective for both. To learn more about how EPAct can affect fleets, go to the EPAct Web site.
