Description

For public transit systems standing on the precipice of transformation, there’s the challenge — and the opportunity — of transitioning to a full fleet of zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs). Let’s dive deep into strategies for not merely adopting, but optimizing the societal benefits of ZEVs. Explore the forward-thinking approaches of agencies across the country and delve into a case study of prioritizing ZEV deployments based on air quality and equity metrics. We'll discuss intriguing alternatives to conventional bus service, drawing inspiration from innovative projects like California's Clean Mobility Options Voucher Pilot Program. And we’ll look at innovative opportunities – for community deployment or collaboration between universities and communities – that may also unlock new sources of funding.
