PCF is one of more than 100 U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Clean Cities designees and represents the entire state of South Carolina. Clean Cities is a locally based, voluntary public/private partnership created to promote energy use in the transportation sector that is clean, safe, sustainable, and less dependent upon foreign energy sources. Clean Cities builds on local initiatives and partnerships as well as nationwide networks to achieve its goals.
