Green Fleet Plan

Overview

Since the initial Green Fleet Implementation Plan (phase one) was approved by Council in 2005, Hamilton has been recognized as a leader in the use of advanced vehicle technology that reduces fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions that cause climate change. It has the second-largest fleet of hybrid and other clean and efficient vehicles in Ontario and actively participates in studying and promoting new technology.

Hamilton’s hybrid fleet has grown to 135 vehicles and has helped to convince vehicle manufacturers that the hybrid market is worth pursuing aggressively.
The Central Fleet has reduced greenhouse gas emissions by 546 metric tonnes over the three-year timeframe of phase one, which is equivalent to reducing the fleet by 45 vehicles.

Hamilton is currently implementing phase two of the Green Fleet Plan.
