Monroe County Green Alternative Fueling Station

The alternative fueling station, located on Scottsville Road, includes a hydrogen fuel cell station, several grades of ethanol fuel and B-20 biodiesel. The goal is that Monroe County continues to protect the environment by reducing the impact of the County’s vehicle fleet. The green fleet consists of more than six dozen flex-fuel and hybrid vehicles. A unique partnership between Rochester Institute of Technology’s Golisano Institute for Sustainability and Center for Integrated Manufacturing Studies and General Motors aids the County in evaluating alternative fuel technology. Monroe County also participates in GM’s Chevrolet Project Driveway by driving and evaluating the performance of a hydrogen fuel cell Chevy Equinox. The fuel cell Equinox is a true zero gas, zero emissions vehicle that only emits water vapor into the air.
