EDEN PRAIRIE, MN -- GE Capital Fleet Services has launched a new interactive eco website that’s dedicated to alternative-fuel vehicles and services. 

The website provides information, tools and educational materials to help companies make their vehicle fleets greener. There are sections dedicated to business solutions and driver solutions.
