Our Mission
Clean Cities advances economic, environmental and energy security by supporting actions to reduce the use of fossil petroleum in the transportation sector. A national network of nearly 100 Clean Cities coalitions brings together stakeholders in the public and private sectors to deploy alternative and renewable fuels, idle-reduction measures, fuel economy improvements, and emerging transportation technologies.
NorCal Clean Cities and Communities, previously Sacramento Clean Cities Coalition, is a US Department of Energy designated Coalition in the Clean Cities and Communities partnership.
We are currently rebranding as NorCal Clean Cities and Communities, as we are expanding our areas of service.
