In all cases, CTE has served as a faithful steward of public funds.
Advancing American Leadership in Clean Transportation
CTE is committed to strengthening American innovation and leadership in clean transportation. Advancing zero-emission transportation solutions not only improves air quality and enhances public health, but also strengthens the economy and creates jobs, positioning the US to be a global leader and promoting domestic energy security. By supporting the transition to cleaner, more efficient transportation solutions, we help ensure that American businesses and workers remain at the forefront of global innovation.
Addressing Environmental and Public Health Challenges Through Clean Transportation
Communities with the highest levels of air pollution often face greater public health risks, including higher rates of respiratory illnesses and cardiovascular disease. Many of these communities also experience limited access to reliable, efficient transportation, which is essential for economic mobility, connecting people to jobs, education, and essential services. By applying data-driven strategies, we ensure that investments in clean transportation deliver the most meaningful benefits for economic opportunity, public health, and environmental sustainability.
CTE’s Stewardship of Public Funds
For more than 32 years, CTE has been a trusted and effective manager of public funds. Our success is rooted in our ability to be responsive to the policy preferences included in funding opportunities of various agencies and administrations. We remain dedicated to advancing clean transportation while demonstrating compatibility with a range of priorities, be they economic, environmental, or geographic.
Through strategic public-private partnerships, CTE has helped organizations efficiently leverage public investments to develop, demonstrate, and deploy zero-emission transportation solutions. Whether prioritizing projects in nonattainment or maintenance areas, supporting Justice40 initiatives, investing in rural areas, or targeting economically distressed communities through Opportunity Zones, CTE’s advanced transportation projects have remained relevant and impactful. The result is a robust portfolio that exemplifies industry progress, helping to solidify America’s leadership in the development and deployment of advanced transportation technologies, strengthening domestic energy security
