Welcome to the NEEP Community-Driven Clean Transportation Resource Center – your hub for community-led, sustainable transportation solutions. 

NEEP is partnering with the Vermont Clean Cities Coalition, Connecticut Southwestern Area Clean Cities Coalition, Vital Communities, Upper Valley Lake Sunapee Regional Planning Commission, Champlain Valley Office of Economic Opportunity, and others on a DOE-funded clean transportation project. This initiative supports four rural and urban communities to devise community-driven strategies that bolster mobility and reduce transportation-related carbon emissions, with a specific focus on electric vehicles (EVs) and electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE).

The project team is coordinating across three states and working closely with these target communities to create a replicable framework for developing, supporting, and advancing community-owned clean transportation implementation plans centered on EV adoption and the expansion of EVSE infrastructure. The project will empower underserved communities in Vermont, New Hampshire, and Connecticut to conduct transportation needs assessments, determine clean transportation priorities, and formulate actionable plans aimed at enhancing mobility and promoting transportation decarbonization. 

Based on insights from stakeholder meetings, surveys, and community-based engagement efforts, NEEP and partners will share general resources and findings in this Online Resource Center. This hub will offer training, educational sessions, and technical support to empower communities in achieving their sustainable transportation goals. 

Toolkits and Guides: Dive into educational content about EVs and the infrastructure that supports them, and access step-by-step guidelines for setting up and maintaining clean transportation solutions.

Community Strategies and Solutions: Peer learning, best practice strategies and solutions, and resources and tools to assist in community engagement efforts, including fair compensation for community involvement.
