The 2013 ACT Expo, taking place June 24 – 27, will commemorate the 20th anniversary of the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) innovative Clean Cities initiative, which has played a significant role in developing the market for alternative fuel and clean vehicle technologies.

ACT Expo 2013 will gather thousands of alternative fuel industry leaders from across North America to showcase the economic, environmental, and energy-security benefits of alternative fuel use in transportation. The conference program will showcase success stories from clean vehicle deployments, details on funding programs, regulatory and policy updates, an exhibit hall with the latest advanced vehicle technologies, networking receptions, and a ride and drive event.

The U.S. DOE Clean Cities program represents more than 10,400 stakeholders with participation in nearly 100 Clean Cities coalitions across the country. Clean Cities coalitions work to build partnerships with local and statewide organizations, businesses, and consumers to adopt alternative and renewable fuels to reduce petroleum use. Launched in 1993, the Clean Cities program is responsible for displacing three billion gallons of petroleum.
