Fleet Services
Fleet Services ensures vehicle reliant City services meet their commitment to
residents by tendering, acquiring, disposing, and maintaining the fleet in a
cost effective and efficient manner.
• Current fleet of vehicles – 400 units
• Annual Fuel Budget - $1.0 million dollars (about 20% of total operating costs)
• City Fleet Emissions = 38% of 2009 Corporate GHG in tonnes
• Awarded “Silver Status” from E3 Fleet (energy, efficiency & excellence)

Council Strategic Framework
Green Fleet
The Green Fleet Strategic Plan is aligned with and supports City Council’s
Strategies and Policies, Core Focus Areas, and the Corporate Work
Plan by:
• Implementation of the Sustainable Procurement Policy (2010);
• Focus on the Core Focus Area to “Protect our Air, Water, and Land” (City
Council Strategic Plan);
• Alignment with Environmental Policy Statement (myPG);
• Focus on policy directions relative to clean air, green
practices, green energy, and reducing carbon
emissions and;
• Establishment of “key progress targets” relative to
emissions and corporate initiatives.

Corporate Work Plan
Green Fleet
Key Progress Targets established (3 years) to achieve City Council’s Strategic
Plan
• Continue enrollment in E3 Fleet Management Program (Energy,
Efficiency, and Excellence)
• Implement action plans prescribed in the Green Fleet Strategic Plan
• Achieve Gold Status E3 Fleet
• Focus on fleet emission reductions to support Carbon Neutral Strategic Plan

What is a Green Fleet?
Focus on two overarching goals:
• Optimize the efficiency of vehicles and equipment, resulting in decreased
fuel consumption and exhaust emissions and;
• Maximize the use of alternative fuels and/or technologies within the financial
capabilities of the organization.

Green Fleet Strategic Plan
Purpose: Develop formal framework to achieve GHG emission reductions by
implementing initiatives from two (2) streams:
• Fleet Purchasing – Right sizing, life cycle costing, alternative technologies
(battery, hybrid, electric, propane);
• Operation of the equipment - reduced idling, route management,
preventative maintenance, fuel use, and driver safety.
Result – A three year (2011 to 2013) plan and associated action plans for
achieving the corporate green fleet objectives.

Green Fleet Strategic Plan
• Providing the context and framework for a long term approach to a green fleet.
• Working towards achieving Gold E3 Fleet Status from the Fraser Basin Council.
• Assessing the costs and benefits of fleet purchases based on life cycle costing.
• Establishing the groundwork for our green fleet strategy to obtain organizational
buy-in towards the Plan.
• Developing guiding policies, procedures, and strategies supporting action plans.

Sustainable Procurement
• Council approved Sustainable Procurement Policy
• Includes a process to acquire goods and services in a way that gives preference to
suppliers that generate positive financial, social, and environmental outcomes
• Key focus areas of Sustainable Procurement are:
- Green Products – Chemicals
- Office Products
- Green Fleet
- Energy Efficiency

Key Strategies to Support Green Fleet
• Create and implement organizational wide communications and training plan to
focus on Green Fleet
• Implement Driver Efficiency Training Program to improve driver safety, fuel
efficiency, safety technique, and emission reductions
• Implement systems to measure idling times on City fleet to support reduction of
fuel use and emissions
• Implement energy efficient vehicle purchasing strategies (e.g. electric vehicles
and propane conversions)
• Examine alternative fuels (e.g. propane)
• Optimize use of assets through “right sizing” and
“route management” assessment and monitoring

2012 Action Plans
www.princegeorge.ca
Propane Fuel Conversion Program
• Pilot Project in 2012 – Five (5) city vehicles.
• Significant reductions in GHG emissions and fleet
operating costs. Propane operated vehicles produce
much less GHG compared to gas engines and the cost
of propane is much lower.
• Project payback on conversion costs ($5000/unit) is
about 14 months.
• Goal - Examine and consider if program should be
enhanced in 2013.

2012 Action Plans
www.princegeorge.ca
COBI (Computer on Board Information)
• Install small on board computer in 40 city vehicles to
“measure and report” on idling time.
• Compare idling times against baseline data.
• Goal is to focus on equipment that is operating above
average idling time in order to reduce fuel use and
emissions.
• Target is to reduce fuel use by 10% by 2013.
