Three key states in the Northeast—New Jersey, New York, and Massachusetts—ended 2021 by making substantial progress for electric trucks when they each adopted California’s Advanced Clean Trucks (ACT) regulation at the end of December. These Northeast states, home to more than two million medium- and heavy-duty vehicle registrations combined, join Oregon and Washington in requiring a progressively greater share of truck sales be zero-emission through 2040. Together these six states represent roughly 20% of medium- and heavy-duty vehicle sales nationally.

Happy New Year from CALSTART! We are excited about the coming months but also wanted to make sure we didn’t let 2021 pass too far out of sight without noting the year’s accomplishments.
