The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is honoring four sites within its Office of Environmental Management (EM) for their significant contributions toward a Biden administration goal of achieving a 100% zero-emissions vehicle fleet by 2035.
In recognition of their efforts toward a more sustainable DOE fleet, the Idaho Cleanup Project and Hanford, Paducah and Savannah River sites will each receive the Department’s Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 Green Fleet Award.
“EM sites have demonstrated outstanding leadership in helping the Department of Energy achieve the administration’s goal of transitioning to 100% zero-emission vehicles by 2035, with 100% light-duty vehicle acquisitions by 2027,” DOE Chief Sustainability Officer Ingrid Kolb said.
