Triangle Clean Cities Coalition

Triangle Clean Cities serves a diverse seven-county region, promoting collaboration for local governments, stakeholders, and partners, tackling challenges that cross jurisdictional lines. The Triangle Clean Cities Coalition was founded at Central Pines Regional Council in 1999 and designated as Coalition by the U.S. Department of Energy in 2001, joining a group of 100 member Clean Cities Coalitions across the US. The Clean Cities program has saved nearly 8 billion gallons of petroleum since its inception in 1993. Meanwhile, Triangle Clean Cities has worked both independently and in collaboration with the three North Carolina coalitions to further our initiatives. Our staff assists Coalition members in reaching their sustainability goals by providing grant funding, technical assistance, and networking opportunities to advance affordable domestic transportation fuels, energy-efficient mobility systems, and other fuel-saving technologies.
