Introduction
The use of less polluting, renewable and regional fuels is a key point of the European initiative and action plan to promote alternatives to mineral oil. In the North Sea area, especially Scandinavia, the Netherlands and Germany there is some successful developments in promoting these alternatives. The North Sea region offers Natural Gas, which may reduce local pollution and the development of ozone. As part of fleet management, the Target project will convert the municipal vehicles to CNG and deliver associated promotional campaigns.
