Western Washington Clean Cities (Seattle) Coalition

Stephanie Meyn is the coordinator for the Western Washington Clean Cities coalition based in Seattle. Since joining the coalition in 2008, she has successfully secured $15 million from the Department of Energy to support a suite of alternative fuel and advanced technology projects. These projects include a pilot test of biomethane in tour buses, the purchase of alternative fuel vehicles and supporting infrastructure, and electrification of ground support equipment at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Meyn also plays an integral role in administering and promoting the recently launched Evergreen Fleets program. Evergreen Fleets offers efficient and budget-friendly best practices to help fleets conserve fuel, reduce emissions, and ultimately achieve certification as "green" fleets.

Meyn has a Master of Science in Atmospheric Science with a diverse set of experiences in air quality management planning, government regulation development, numerical modeling, and measurement of energy efficiency in buildings. She proudly walks the talk—literally. Her alternative vehicle of choice is her feet—she lives car-free in Seattle and can offer her product reviews and candid opinions on "rain-proofing" a commute.
