National Alternative Fuels Conference: Tremendous Promise

The Alternative Fuel Vehicle Institute (AFVi) believes that 2007 holds tremendous promise. Here are our top ten predictions.

1. Gaseous fuels will make great inroads in goods movement applications.

2. Oil prices will go up or down.

3. The electric vehicle buzz will experience a renewed charge.

4. Fortune 500 companies will realize “green” is their new favorite color.

5. Oil prices will go up or down.

6. Ethanol infrastructure will grow.

7. Willie Nelson really does make more truckers believers in biodiesel.

8. Unnecessary engine idling is politically incorrect.

9. Oil prices will go up or down.

10. The Alternative Fuels and Vehicles National Conference + Expo 2007 in Anaheim, April 1-4, will be the largest gathering yet of fleets, policymakers, manufacturers, suppliers, investors and academics with more than 100 exhibitors, 150 speakers, and 1500 attendees. There is no other industry umbrella that welcomes all fuels and technologies that are cleaner and/or displace petroleum. This is truly one-stop-shopping for fleets.

Some or all of the above may turn out to be true. What we can tell you is that not only is #10 a done deal, but you can also ensure the best registration rates as well as a room at the official conference hotel if you register today. Special note to fleets: Apply by January 10 for a chance to receive one of one hundred complimentary registrations for the full conference. You can do all of that now by going to www.afvi.org/NationalConference2007/
