Workshop: Potential Medium and Heavy-Duty Zero-Emission Fleet Regulation

Print this Article | Send to Colleague


The California Air Resources Board (CARB) released a notice for an upcoming public workshop to discuss a proposed regulation that would, “achieve a zero-emission truck and bus fleet by 2045 everywhere feasible and significantly earlier for certain market segments such as last mile delivery and drayage applications.” CARB says the initial focus of the regulation would be on larger fleets with vehicles suitable for early electrification and large entities that hire them. The purpose of the workshop (which will be held from 10:00 am -3:00 pm on February 12, 2020 at the SCAQMD Headquarters Auditorium) is to solicit feedback on these regulatory concepts. Specifically, “staff will be discussing potential avenues and methods to explore different regulatory frameworks like fleet purchase requirements, ideas such as requiring larger entities to hire fleets that use zero-emission trucks, or establishing zero-emission zones where only fleets with zero-emission trucks could operate.”
