ABOUT PRCC

CLEAN CITIES FOR OUR REGION'S FUTURE:

The Pittsburgh Region Clean Cities Coalition helps to reduce petroleum consumption in the transportation sector by supporting the transition to cleaner fueling options.

 

Our mission is to advance the energy, economic and environmental security of the United States by reducing our reliance on petroleum, supporting local actions for clean fuel-transition and adoption, and lowering  greenhouse gas emissions. 

To meet these goals, we build and support the infrastructure needed for a strong alternative fuel and alternative vehicle market in Western Pennsylvania and we serve the needs of our coalition supporters through education, business consulting, development grant writing, and management of Federal and State-funded projects.

 

We are one of over 70 regionally-based Clean Cities organizations coordinated by the U.S. Department of Energy to fulfill this vision of a cleaner tomorrow.

Our Regional Coverage Includes:

Western PA communities are now taking action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and counter the negative impacts of climate change. PRCC is a partner in meeting these goals.

PRCC welcomes stakeholders from across rural, urban and suburban communities, including especially those most affected by poor air quality and other health and safety issues.

Western PA is a hotbed for advanced technologies in the transportation and energy efficiency sectors. Our fuel-agnostic approach invites research and discussion of emerging trends.

Transportation causes 29% of the U.S.'s total greenhouse gas emissions. PRCC drives change with clean fuel technologies, alternate transport modalities, and other net-zero strategies.
