How to enroll
1. Click the button below to fill out our enrollment form or email [email protected] to get started.
2. We will work with you to collect your relevant fleet data. 3. We will provide your fleet with a report that you can use to set future fuel consumption and emission reduction goals. |
REQUIRED FLEET DATA
All eligible fleets interested in LCF Green Fleet designation must submit specific baseline data, as well as data on specific efficiency and alternative fuel technologies deployed in their fleet operations.
More details on the specific data required is listed on the LCF Green Fleets Enrollment Data Form. Form available upon request by emailing [email protected]. |
Fleet ANALYSIS & SCORING METHODOLOGY
To quantify fleet emissions, the Louisiana Green Fleets program utilizes its own variation of the U.S. Department of Energy and Argonne National Laboratory’s Alternative Fuel Life-Cycle Environmental and Economic Transportation (AFLEET) Tool. The AFLEET-based model is used to subtract the “actual” emissions of the candidate fleet’s conventional- and alternative-fuel fleet from the “expected” emissions the candidate’s fleet if it were only comprised of conventional-fuel vehicles to calculate net emissions savings. We then use a logarithmic point scale to determine fleet points earned (see point scoring below).
