State and Alternative Fuel Provider Fleet Compliance Annual Report (Results for MY201 / FY2014)
- National Renewable Energy Lab. (NREL), Golden, CO (United States)
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) regulates covered state government and alternative fuel provider (SFP) fleets under the Alternative Fuel Transportation Program, pursuant to the Energy Policy Act of 1992 (EPAct), as amended. For model year (MY) 2013, the compliance rate with this program for the more than 296 covered SFP fleets was 100%. Fleets used either Standard Compliance or Alternative Compliance. The more than 286 fleets that used Standard Compliance exceeded their aggregate MY 2013 acquisition requirements by 6% through acquisitions alone. The 10 covered fleets that complied using Alternative Compliance exceeded their aggregate MY 2013 petroleum-use reduction requirements by 43%. Overall, DOE saw an increase from MY 2012 in total biodiesel fuel use reported of more than 1.5 million gallons of biodiesel (B100), and a concomitant increase in the number of biodiesel fuel-use credits earned. In addition, nearly 7.7 million gallons of B100 were reported in MY 2013, the highest biodiesel use reported in recent years. The second-highest numbers ever reported of both light-duty (LD) alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs) acquired and AFVs acquired across all categories were also reported. Compared to recent model years, these rates suggest a continuing increase in the number of AFVs that covered fleets are acquiring and a surge in biodiesel purchase and use.
