Anne Tazewell, Alternative Fuels Program Manager, NC Solar Center
Anne Tazewell is the Transportation Program Manager for the NC Solar Center at NC State University. With state and federal funding, Anne helps coordinate efforts to increase the use of advanced transportation technologies and alternative fuels, such as biofuels, through outreach to fleet managers, elected officials and other decision makers. She is also the Policy Chair of Triangle Clean Cities - a coalition of public and private partners sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy that is dedicated to expanding the use of alternative fuels. In this capacity Anne serves as a technical resource for policy makers in North Carolina providing analysis of policy options and activities. In 2006, Anne launched a three-year $2 million Clean Fuel Advanced Technology (CFAT) project that features education and outreach, recognition for exemplary activities and funding for transportation related emission reduction projects in 24 NC counties that do not meet national air quality standards. Over $1.3 has been awarded for a wide array of projects including NC’s first biodiesel blending at NC fuel terminal, E85 and B99 refueling infrastructure.
