A brief description of the institution’s efforts to support alternative fuel and power technology in its motorized fleet:

For Fiscal Year 2013, ASU achieved 100% compliance with the component of state alternative fuel law regarding the purchasing requirement that stipulates agencies, including universities, must purchase a minimum of 75% alt fueled vehicles if the vehicles are operated in Maricopa or Pima County. Arizona State University installed an on campus biodiesel station in June 2013. Provider REV BioDiesel uses oil from ARAMARK, ASU’s food services provider, and converts it to biodiesel fuel. Many of ASU’s diesel fuel vehicles can run on B20, which is 20 percent biodiesel mixed with 80 percent petroleum diesel fuel. The majority of lawn and garden equipment the ASU grounds crew uses now runs on straight B99 fuel, 99 percent biodiesel that is mixed with only one percent petroleum diesel fuel.
