Tiger Teams Tiger Teams are a critical element of the Clean Cities program, providing onthe-ground consultation to help inform program strategies. The knowledge Tiger Team experts gain from these experiences often helps inform other alternative fuels activities, such as needed research, codes and standards revisions, and new training resources.
Tiger Teams can help industry and fleets tackle difficult technical and market challenges. These can include issues related to deploying alternative and renewable fuels, idle-reduction measures, fuel economy improvements, and emerging transportation technologies.
