Our History
Chicago Area Clean Cities, which became the Illinois Alliance for Clean Transportation in 2022, was founded on May 13, 1994. It was the 5th Clean Cities coalition to launch under the U.S. Department of Energy’s Clean Cities program. DOE currently has more than 75 Clean Cities coalitions throughout the US.
Since we received our official Clean Cities designation from DOE, our partners and members have collaborated to meet challenges and transform transportation across the State of Illinois.
We’re proud of the impact that we’ve made over the past 30 years.
