Alternative Fuels and Renewable Energy

Overview

This program encourages and promotes the use of alternative transportation fuels as a way to increase the overall efficiency of the transportation system, improve air quality and promote energy independence. An extensive network of alternative fuel stakeholders has been established and is working to accelerate the availability and use of alternative fuels in Alabama. Other sources of information for alternative fuels include the Alabama Clean Fuels Coalition, STRIDE Collaborative, and the U.S. Department of Energy’s Alternative Fuels and Advanced Vehicles Data Center with an alternative fuel station locator, tax incentives and laws, and much more.

Rural transit agencies are also available to provide transportation services for rural residents, such as transporting senior citizens to medical appointments and transporting workers to jobs in areas where there is no mass transportation.  For more information on rural transit in Alabama contact the Alabama Department of Transportation’s Bureau of Multimodal Transportation at (334) 353-6401.
