摘要：	Nowhere in the world is the value of the automobile and the importance of transportation more recognized than it is right here in the United States. The transportation sector has an enormous impact on our economy, our nation's energy security, and our environment. Every year we increase our dependence on imported oil, which increases the trade deficit and undermines our national security. Moreover, vehicle emissions are the single largest contributor to air pollution in many communities, making our air unhealthy to breathe and increasing our health care costs. DOE is committed to energy use in America's transportation sector that is more efficient, less dependent on foreign sources, environmentally friendly, sustainable, and safe. Alternative fuels contribute to that vision. DOE's Clean Cities Program, designed to achieve the objectives established by the Energy Policy Act of 1992 (EPACT), supports local, voluntary, public-private partnerships that deploy clean AFVs and build the associated alternative fuel infrastructure. EPACT identifies alternative fuels as biodiesel, electricity, ethanol, methanol, natural gas, and liquefied petroleum gas (propane). The Clean Cities Program has the following three primary goals: 1. One million AFVs (using alternative fuel) on the road by 2010; 2. One billion gasoline gallon equivalents/year used in AFVs by 2010 and 3. 75%self-sustaining Clean Cities coalitions by 2005. This roadmap explains how your community can join forces with the nationwide network of Clean Cities to increase the use of alternative fuels and alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs). You will learn how the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) can help your community build a coalition, set goals, and foster the necessary commitments for successful AFV market development. The Roadmap to Clean Cities walks you through the program plan development process and steps to Clean Cities designation.
