Sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Vehicle Technologies Program, Clean Cities is a government-industry partnership designed to reduce petroleum consumption in the transportation sector. 

1. EPA's Clean School Bus Program: The EPA's Clean School Bus Program is set to allocate substantial funding through 2026 to replace existing school buses with zero-emission and low-emission models. This initiative has awarded nearly $2 billion for about 5,000 bus replacements across over 600 schools.
2. FY 2024 Technology Integration Funding Opportunity Announcement: The Department of Energy is offering $15 million in funding through the Vehicle Technologies Office. This opportunity supports projects that advance zero-emission vehicle technologies and infrastructure, particularly for critical emergency response workers. Applications are due by April 30, 2024.
3. 2024 Clean Cities Outreach, Engagement, and Technical Assistance: This program, under the Department of Energy, focuses on zero-emission vehicle training and infrastructure technologies. It aims to engage community leaders and stakeholders in adopting clean transportation solutions.

These programs are designed to help commercial fleet operators in West Virginia transition to more environmentally friendly vehicles by providing financial support and technical assistance.
