Historical Greening of the Fleet
10
Federal Energy Policy Act 1992

• 75 of the states light-duty vehicle purchases
  to be alternative fueled vehicles
• Purchase alternative fueled vehicles with fueling
  stations in California
• Use alternative fuel in the vehicles

11
State Legislation

• SB 1170 (10-14-01)
• Created the Driving Green Task Force
• Required a report recommending strategies to
  reduce fuel consumption and emissions of state
  vehicles
• Report issued 11/01/02
• Resulted in SB 552 (9-18-03)
• Required DGS to develop policies and formulas for
  purchasing of state vehicles by January 1, 2005

12
Impact on Vehicle Purchases

• Office of Fleet Administration (OFA) Developed
• Enhanced DGS ULEV Vehicle Purchase Lease Policy
• Procurement Division Developed
• Enhanced Efficiency Costing Methodology

13
Vehicle Purchase and Lease Policy

• Procure ULEV II and cleaner light-duty sedans
• Procure ULEV I light-duty pickups, vans, and SUVs
• Maximize purchase of SULEV and hybrid vehicles
• Discourage purchase of SUVs

Vehicle Purchase and Lease Policy

• Applies to purchase and lease of
• Alternative Fuel Vehicles (AFVs)
• Gasoline Vehicles

• Awards contracts based on lowest total cost of
  ownership

16
Enhanced Efficiency Costing

• In addition to purchase price, include vehicle
  costs associated with
• Pollution cost of criteria pollutants emitted by
  the vehicle over its useful life
• Operation cost of fuel to operate the vehicle
  over its useful life
