The alternative fuel industry is heating up. It's a very exciting time to be in the energy business, especially when it comes to transportation. We're celebrating the milestone 75th Clean Cities coalition and kicking off the new Federal Alternative Fuel Vehicle (AFV) USER Program in cities across the country.

What's in store for alternative fuels and advanced technology vehicles in the new millennium? The Clean Cities Coalitions now operate more than 240,000 alternative fuel vehicles in both public and private sectors and have access to more than 4,000 alternative refueling stations. DOE recently announced the selection of 15 proposals that will receive just under $1.7 million in financial assistanceto help expand DOE's information dissemination and public outreach efforts for alternative fuels and advanced transportation technologies.
The cover story in this issue of the Alternative Fuel News highlights the niche market principle-the places in which AFVs would best fit. This year's SEP funding is expected to be the springboard needed for the development of niche projects. The Clean Cities Program, by matching those needs and attributes in niches, can dramatically increase the attractiveness of AFVs and make an impact on thosehigh-mileage, high-use fleets.
This exciting first issue of Alternative Fuel News is loaded with information and fresh perspectives on the important issues that affect the alternative fuels industry. The cover story reviews DOE's Third National Clean Cities Conference, followed by an interview with Energy Secretary Federico Pena and many familiar features from previous newsletters (Clean Cities Drive and AFDC Update)such asHot off the Press, Coordinator's Corner, and At the Pump.
