State government is moving toward the goals established in Executive Order 04-10. The SmartFleet Committee began tracking fuel use in January of 2005 and fuel reports are distributed to agencies on a quarterly basis. SmartFleet is working with the Department of Administration on modifying vehicle acquisition contracts to reflect the necessity of reducing petroleum dependence. This is especially true of light duty vehicles, which feature the greatest availability of alternative-fuel options. SmartFleet is also implementing a fleet information system, which will be a valuable tool for helping agencies track fuel use and improve fleet management. Furthermore, SmartFleet is working with three agencies - Administration, Transportation and Natural Resources - on a plug-in hybrid conversion project at Minnesota State University, Mankato.
