The California Air Resources Board (CARB) approves this tethered mobile DC fast charger, recognizing its crucial role in supporting the applicant’s fleet and facilitating their transition from diesel to zero-emission vehicles. The applicant is committed to operating this infrastructure at the designated location for the duration of the project’s life.

Project Specifics:

One DC fast charger (50 kW, Combined Charging System (CCS) Type 1 connector)
208,000 kWh – estimated annual energy output of the new station
438,000 kWh – maximum annual energy output of new station
Total Project Cost: $60,852.91
Total Eligible Cost: $25,343.00
Total Funding Amount: $15,205.00
This project is not co-funded by any other funding sources
Site location is within a Disadvantaged community and Low-income community

Request: Approval to fund a semi-permanent, off-grid charging solution for heavy-duty drayage trucks with two direct current (DC) fast chargers for Zeem Solutions, located at 2401 E. Pacific Coast Hwy, Wilmington, CA 90744.
Air District: South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD or the District)
Applicable Guidelines Section(s): 2017 Carl Moyer Guidelines, Chapter 10, Section F.1.(A).
CARB Action: Approved

Determination: The Carl Moyer Program Guidelines require that projects must be permanently installed and located in California. Zeem Solutions (the applicant) has requested funding for a semi-permanent, off-grid, on-site power generation solution to support the charging needs of battery-electric heavy-duty drayage trucks near the Port of Long Beach. The applicant will operate the infrastructure at 2401 E. Pacific Coast Hwy, Wilmington, where Zeem Solutions has a 5-year lease, which exceeds the Moyer contract’s project life. The infrastructure is housed in a shipping container-sized unit that is not portable, but is transportable with heavy-duty lift equipment.

This off-grid DC fast charging infrastructure is crucial for supporting heavy-duty drayage trucks and the future transition from diesel to zero-emission vehicles. The off-grid charging solution can be deployed much faster than an on-grid station, which would take a minimum of 24 months to establish. While an on-grid system remains an option for the future, the fleet of battery electric trucks needs immediate charging support, which this system can provide in just 6 months.

The project is located within a Disadvantage Community (DAC) and within the boundaries of an AB617 community. As such, Community Air Protection funds are being considered as a source of funding for this project.

Project Specifics:

Two DC fast chargers (150 kW Total, Combined Charging System (CCS) Type 1 connector)
751 MWh – estimated annual energy output of new station
1,091 MWh – estimated maximum annual energy output of new station
Total Project Cost: $1,800,000
Total Moyer Funding Amount: $900,000

Funding for a crane power vault at the port aligns with the California Sustainable Freight Action Plan's PDF Download guiding principle to invest strategically to accelerate the transition to zero and near-zero emission equipment, including supportive infrastructure.

California Air Resources Board (CARB) approves VCAPCD's request to fund one crane shore power vault at the South Marine Terminal, Wharf 1 at the Port of Hueneme. The crane power vault will provide shore power to a mobile hybrid diesel-electric crane used for cargo handling. The deployment of this power vault will help expand the area able to support the scale-up of electric operation of hybrid diesel-electric cranes at the South Marine Terminal, Wharf 1 at the Port of Hueneme. The Carl Moyer Program Guidelines, Chapters 3 and 10, provide the necessary criteria and guidance for VCAPCD to implement the installation of this crane power vault. For reporting purposes, the grantee must provide total crane visits, the annual usage (e.g. kWh) and episodes of electrical service interruption by the local utility company. This power vault is eligible to receive up to 50 percent of Moyer eligible costs.
