DUBLIN, OHIO – The City of Dublin Division of Fleet Management has been designated as an Ohio Green Fleet by Clean Fuels Ohio’s statewide Ohio Green Fleets program.

Designed by Clean Fuels Ohio to improve the environmental performance and efficiency of public and private fleets, the Ohio Green Fleets program recognizes fleets efficiency and environmental performance. Designated Ohio Green fleets provide a community service by improving air quality and reducing Ohio’s dependence on imported petroleum.

The Division of Fleet Management earned designation as a one-star Ohio Green Fleet. Fleets are evaluated based on policies they have implemented to reduce vehicle emissions and reliance on petroleum fuels. The City has reduced its reliance on petroleum fuels by adding 44 new vehicles powered by compressed natural gas (CNG) to its fleet. This new technology will save the City an estimated $30,000 a year in fuel costs and significantly cut down on vehicle emissions, according to the City. Additionally, the City earned a place in the 100 Best Government Fleets in North America this year.

The City of Dublin estimates annual fuel savings of $30,000 with its new CNG vehicles.

“Providing our customer agencies with economically and environmentally sound transportation is one of our top priorities,” said Darryl Syler, fleet manager. “These 44 compressed natural gas-powered vehicles are more cost effective and environmentally friendly than petroleum-powered vehicles.”

Since its launch in August 2008, Ohio Green Fleets program has engaged hundreds of fleets across the state in workshops, seminars and individual meetings. This work has resulted in the active enrollment of more than 250 public and private organizations — all of who have provided fleet data and begun the process of earning Ohio Green Fleet certification.

CNG will help the City of Dublin reduce emissions.

Are You Tracking Your Fleet's True Total Cost of Ownership?

Bobit Business Media surveyed 190 fleet professionals and found that while most fleets are tracking costs, fragmented systems and data gaps are keeping true TCO visibility out of reach. With rising pressure to control spend in an increasingly volatile environment, the gap between what fleets think they know and what the data actually shows is wider than you might expect. See how your peers are managing costs today and where the industry still has room to improve.
