The Piedmont
Triad Regional Council (PTRC) in partnership with the NCSU Clean Energy Technology
Center is part of the #Fuel What Matters
initiative. PTRC, a 12-county regional
council of government, is working to educate and engage with our communities,
especially in Davie, Davidson, Forsyth and Guilford Counties, in an effort to
reduce transportation related emissions. The use of electric vehicles can help to reduce emissions, cut down on fuel consumption and
even save money. PTRC is helping to diversify
fuel supplies and support cleaner, more vibrant local and state economies. The end result – cleaner air and greater
energy security.
