Utility & Public Fleet Council

Dear Fleet Professional:
On behalf of the CVEF and your fleet management colleagues from across North America, welcome to the Utility & Public Fleet Council (UPFC) web pages. CVEF established the UPFC to accelerate manufacturers' development and commericalization of new NGV platforms by facilitating communication between utility and public fleet administrators and the equipment vendors who serve them. UPFC's agenda topics include:
  • Assessing utilities', governments'and other public fleets' NGV preferences and performance specifications
  • Leveraging buying power to increase the number and types of NGVs offered in the marketplace at the lowest possible cost
  • NGV maintenance and other technical support issues
  • Development of total life-cycle cost analyses and other tools to evaluate NGVs vis-à-vis other options
  • Implementation of effective EPACT compliance policies and procedures
We have no membership fee and ask only that you participate as much as possible with your insights, your experience and your input. The UPFC relies on these web pages, e-mails, teleconference calls and the occasional face-to-face meeting at a leading fleet trade venue to accomplish our goal. We invite you to join us! Contact Doug Horne Email: for more information.
Best Regards,
