PASADENA, CA – As gas prices and concern over imported oil rise, more and more motorists are turning to natural gas, biodiesel, ethanol, and other alternative-fuel vehicles. Where can these alternative fuel users find up-to-date information on where to refuel when they’re out on the road? The Better World Club, a leading green auto club, is partnering with CALSTART to provide drivers with alternative-fuel station information while on the go via a free phone service that uses information from CALSTART’s CleanCarMaps.com Web site.

As of July 1, alternative-fuel vehicle drivers can call the Better World Club to receive information on the nearest refueling station. They don’t even need to be Better World Club members to take advantage of this service; anyone can call the toll-free number: (866) 238 -1137, and a Better World Club operator will provide the nearest refueling station using CALSTART’s CleanCarMaps.com. The Web site lists more than 1,500 alternative-fuel stations throughout California, Nevada, and Arizona.

CleanCarMaps.com provides up-to-date maps and operating information on alternative-fuel stations. The goal is to provide options and make it easier for motorists as they transition from conventional to alternative-fuel vehicles. The overriding goal is to reduce the burden of oil dependence and cut carbon emissions.
