Many <a href=\"https:\/\/theicct.org\/sites\/default\/files\/publications\/ICCT_G20-briefing-paper_Jun2015_updated.pdf\">leading fleet operators<\/a> already have zero-emission trucks on the road.<\/p>\n<p>A major reason for the shift towards electric vehicles? Fleets and manufacturers recognize long-term potential for major cost savings. Market analysts forecast that light-duty electric trucks will achieve a lower total cost of ownership than trucks that run on internal combustion engines \u2014 even absent incentives \u2014 as early as 2021, and that medium- and heavy-duty trucks are likely to follow by the end of the decade.<\/p>\n<p>Creating strong policies that support the transition to electric will also increase economic opportunities in a stable, growing segment of the energy market, while helping states build back better.<\/p>\n<p>For example, California\u2019s landmark Advanced Clean Truck rule is expected to save the state economy at least <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edf.org\/energyexchange\/2020\/06\/17\/report-californias-clean-truck-rule-will-save-the-economy-billions-eliminate-vast-amounts-of-pollution\/#more-20253\">$7 billion<\/a> over the next 20 years and <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edf.org\/energyexchange\/2020\/04\/29\/groundbreaking-clean-truck-initiative-will-reduce-air-pollution-in-california\/\">create<\/a> thousands of new jobs by 2035 \u2014 thanks in part to the build out and installation of new electric charging infrastructure. This transition to clean vehicles will improve bad air quality that contributes to a higher number of missed workdays and hospital visits each year, helping to lower health costs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The road ahead<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This announcement is the first step on the road to a more specific, comprehensive plan. Over the coming months, the states are expected to develop a model action plan, after which individual states will develop their own tailored plans in order to ensure they can electrify vehicles most effectively for their circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>Through the planning process, EDF, along with other key stakeholders, will encourage participating states to adopt robust targets and a comprehensive set of policies for driving the adoption of zero-emission trucks. We will also continue to bring other states on board this historic initiative.<\/p>\n<p>To achieve a near-total transition to electric trucks and buses by 2050, <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edf.org\/energyexchange\/2020\/07\/06\/electrifying-trucks-and-buses-is-an-opportunity-for-lasting-change-one-we-cant-afford-to-miss\/\">at least 30%<\/a> of the entire new medium- and heavy-duty market across the U.S. must be zero-emission by 2030. States should move swiftly to implement their plans and achieve this level of ambition, and EDF will urge them to do so.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s imperative to demonstrate a commitment to building a more sustainable economy as we emerge from the COVID and economic crises. Supporting the deployment of zero-emission trucks and buses is an important step that can help put Americans back to work while protecting our health and climate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As our nation grapples with a historic public health crisis, 15 states and the District of Columbia are showing leadership by committing to address a dangerous culprit that makes us more vulnerable to COVID-19 and climate change: diesel pollution from trucks and buses.
