Summary - Electric Trucking US 2024. Online registration by Cvent

Electric trucks are poised to revolutionize the road freight sector in the US. This pivotal moment coincides with the drive towards stricter clean transportation regulations, federal funding support, and the expansion of charging infrastructure.

The federal government‘s recent release of the first-ever National Zero-Emission Freight Corridor Strategy marks a transformative step forward. This strategy identifies key hubs and prioritizes investment, planning, and deployment of heavy-duty vehicle charging and fueling infrastructure by 2040 in a phased approach. Numerous funding opportunities for clean freight are already available through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). These initiatives include the Clean Heavy-Duty Vehicle Program, Diesel Emissions Reduction Act (DERA) Funding, Commercial Clean Vehicle Tax Credit, and Reduction of Truck Emissions at Port Facilities, among others.

States have also undertaken remarkable clean transportation initiatives. The adoption of California's Advanced Clean Trucks rule by ten states emphasizes a collective commitment to accelerating the production and adoption of zero-emission trucks over the next two decades. California has taken additional measures to meet its clean air goals by implementing the Advanced Clean Fleets program in 2023.

This convergence of federal and state-level actions, along with industry advancements and infrastructure development, paves the way for a swift transition towards zero-emission freight in the US.

In light of these progressive developments, Global Transmission Report is excited to launch a timely conference on Electric Trucking US, scheduled to be held on December 3-4, 2024 at San Francisco Airport Marriott Waterfront.

The objective of the conference is to explore opportunities, identify challenges, and discuss solutions to accelerate the transition to electric trucks to advance sustainable freight transportation in the US.

The conference will cover a range of topics essential for understanding and supporting the adoption of electric trucks in the US. It will convene industry leaders, policymakers, regulators, charging infrastructure developers, electric truck manufacturers, and other key stakeholders and provide valuable insights and networking opportunities for attendees.

Join us in exploring how electric trucks can pave the way towards a sustainable freight paradigm.
