This factsheet series is intended to help address some of the most common questions related to zero emission trucks and the supply side regulations that accelerate their deployment. The documents evolved from a 2023 New York Climate Week workshop CLEE hosted on behalf of California’s presidency of the Transport Decarbonisation Alliance. The roundtable “Accelerating Global Collaboration on Zero Emission Trucks” brought together over 70 policy-makers, experts, and industry stakeholders from around the world. It featured seven topic-specific table discussions, with the goal of collectively describing the evidence to address the top questions stakeholders and policymakers have about zero emission trucks and supply-side truck regulations. The roundtable’s conversations and subsequent policymaker interest inspired these factsheets.
These factsheets aim to acknowledge valid concerns, put challenges and benefits into context and summarize evidence, case studies, and best practices that collectively describe a path forward. The primary intended audience is policymakers looking to meet climate goals by supporting a transition to zero emission medium- and heavy-duty vehicles and considering supply-side regulations.
The Blueprint: ‘Zero-Emission Truck Charging Infrastructure and the Grid’
‘Zero-Emission Truck Charging Infrastructure and the Grid’, a whitepaper by Matteo Muratori at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), provided comprehensive reflections and guidance on the 2023 Climate Week Roundtable on “Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure and the Grid.” Muratori served as table expert for our Roundtable on “Accelerating Global Collaboration on Zero Emission Trucks,” and the NREL whitepaper inspired our broader factsheet series.
Please check back soon for new factsheets that CLEE will release in this series.
