Zero-Emission Vehicle Incentives and the Advanced Clean Fleets Regulation
Contacto
Categorías
Zero-emission (ZE) medium-duty (MD) and heavy-duty (HD) vehicle incentive opportunities are available for fleets subject to the Advanced Clean Fleets (ACF) Regulation – Drayage Truck, High Priority and Federal Fleet (HPF), and State and Local Government Agency Fleet (SLG) requirements. California Air Resources Board’s (CARB) incentive programs generally require fleets to be in compliance with all applicable local, state, and federal rules and regulations. Incentivized vehicles funded by the programs can be used to achieve emission reductions earlier to or in excess of regulatory requirements, or meet future ACF compliance obligations with a few exceptions.
As a disclaimer, funding is not guaranteed, funding amounts may vary, and applicants should seek additional guidance for more program specific information regarding eligibility criteria and how to apply. Visit the CARB ZEV Truckstop webpage for more information regarding incentive programs and other additional resources.
