Refuel: San Diego Regional Alternative Fuel Coordinating Council

SANDAG partnered with the San Diego Regional Clean Cities Coalition and the San Diego County Air Pollution Control District on a California Energy Commission grant to build upon the groundwork established by the San Diego Regional Plug-in Electric Vehicle Infrastructure working group (REVI). The grant expanded upon REVI to address all alternative fuels and to continue to lay the framework for future alternative fuel planning efforts. A multi-stakeholder group (known as the “San Diego Regional Alternative Fuel Coordinating Council”, or “Refuel”) was formed to advise on the development of a regional readiness plan.

Refuel addressed barriers and helped to streamline alternative fuel adoption and provided best practices and real-time learning and sharing across jurisdictions.  Refuel conducted a regional alternative fuel survey to better understand existing conditions; the results were included in the San Diego Regional Alternative Fuel Readiness Plan, as well as in toolkits to be used by different sectors (e.g., consumers, public agencies, fuel marketers).

Refuel meetings are open to the public and will be held once per quarter at the Center for Sustainable Energy. Meetings will be noticed by SANDAG and agendas and other documents will be posted here.
