Mid-Atlantic Clean Cities and Communities Expansion (MACCE)

The Mid-Atlantic Clean Cities and Communities Expansion Program (MACCE) is a regional initiative designed to strengthen the capacity of Clean Cities and Communities coalitions across the Mid-Atlantic United States, including Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Jersey, Washington, D.C., West Virginia, and Virginia. The program addresses sharply increased demand for alternative fuel vehicle and charging station consulting services and technical assistance, driven by the implementation of the federal Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and Inflation Reduction Act. Since transportation already accounts for the largest share of carbon dioxide emissions in the Mid-Atlantic region, MACCE works to ensure that each participating Clean Cities and Communities coalition is adequately staffed, trained, and funded to help reduce transportation sector greenhouse gas emissions. MACCE is a joint effort among several regional coalitions, including Virginia Clean Cities, West Virginia Clean Cities and Communities, the Greater Washington Region Clean Cities Coalition, Pittsburgh Region Clean Cities, the Eastern Pennsylvania Alliance for Clean Transportation, Clean Fuels Ohio, and New Jersey Clean Cities. As part of its core strategy, MACCE organizes the Mid-Atlantic Advanced Transportation Summit & Expo (MAATSE), a regional conference connecting fleet managers, policymakers, and original equipment manufacturers with practical tools, technologies, and peer learning opportunities to advance clean and sustainable fleet transportation deployment across the region.
