Under CARB’s proposed Advanced Clean Fleets (ACF) regulation, medium- and heavy-duty fleets would have to replace their internal combustion engine trucks, with battery-electric or hydrogen-fuel-cell electric vehicles.
While zero-emission trucks release no direct tailpipe emissions during operation, they are still responsible for generating greenhouse gases during production.
Orange EV had the most deployed ZETs in the United States with 162 at press time.
You might be surprised by the number of zero-emission medium- and heavy-duty trucks that have been deployed in the U.S., given the amount of media coverage given to them.
A new virtual hub aims to make it easier for small fleets to transition to zero-emission vehicles.
Oregon's new rules will speed the transition to electric and lower-emissions trucks, buses, and vans, and likely will inspire other states to also adopt the emissions regulations.
The Accelerate to Zero Emissions coalition – consisting of 13 entities, including the region’s largest cities – aims to make it easier for local residents and businesses to transition to electric vehicles (EV), plug-in hybrids, and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.
With this new collaboration, both companies look to expand advanced, electrified drive systems to further zero-emissions development.
Heavy-duty trucks with the latest natural gas engines can cut smog-forming emissions by more than 90%; fueling with renewable natural gas reduces greenhouse gas emissions by at least 80%.
