AT&T Alternative-Fuel Vehicle Commitment AT&T is investing up to $565 million as part of a planned initiative to deploy approximately 15,000 alternative-fuel vehicles through 2018. In a 2009 report, the Center for Automotive Research (CAR) estimated that the planned alternative fuel vehicle commitment would:

Create or save – on average – approximately 1,000 jobs per year over the first five years of the initiative. Save 49 million gallons of gasoline. Reduce carbon emissions by 211,000 metric tons over the 10-year deployment period – the equivalent to removing the emissions from more than 38,600 traditional passenger vehicles for a year.

Compressed Natural Gas Vehicles

AT&T expects to spend an estimated $350 million to purchase about 8,000 CNG vehiclesthrough 2013.

AT&T’s CNG vehicles are manufactured by U.S. automakers and converted to run on CNG by domestic suppliers.AT&T is working with natural gas service providers to build new fueling stations. In March 2010, AT&T signed an agreement with Clean Energy Fuels Corp. to provide CNG stations for the company.CNG vehicles emit approximately 25 percent less emissions than those powered by traditional gasoline engines. The CNG vehicles will be used to provide and maintain communications services for AT&T customers. As of January 2011, AT&T has deployed more than 2,400 CNG vehicles, with nearly 1,600 of those vehicles in California.

Alternative-Fuel Model Passenger Cars

AT&T expects to spend approximately $215 million to begin replacing passenger cars with alternative- fuel models.

AT&T expects to replace more than 7,000 passenger cars through 2018.During the initial phase of deployment, gasoline-powered vehicles are being replaced with hybrid models. As technologies evolve, additional alternative-fuel vehicle types will be considered for inclusion. These vehicles are expected to offer a 39 percent improvement in fuel economy and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 29 percent in comparison with traditional gasoline-powered vehicles. AT&T currently operates over 1,000 hybrid-electric passenger vehicles across the country.

AT&T has also deployed two all-electric vehicles (AEVs), a Smith Newton cargo truck in St. Louis, Missouri and a Ford Transit Connect Electric van in Dallas,

Texas. AT&T expects to make additional AEV deployments in 2011.
