California Makes History: $1 Billion in HVIP Vouchers Paid

HVIP $1 Billion Voucher Redemption

California HVIP Surpasses $1 Billion in Commercial Medium- and Heavy-Duty Clean Transportation Vouchers 

We’re thrilled to announce a historic milestone: California’s Clean Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP) has officially surpassed $1 BILLION in voucher redemptions, a landmark achievement in our collective commitment to clean transportation. 

This is a joint achievement between the California Air Resources Board (CARB), funders of the project, and CALSTART, administrators of the California HVIP Project. Launched in 2009 by CARB, and part of the California Climate Investments—which uses billions of Cap-and-Invest revenue to support clean transportation—HVIP has become one of the most reputable clean transportation incentive initiatives in the United States. 

That billion isn’t just a number — it represents real change on California’s roads. Here’s a look at the impact we’ve built together:  

  • Supported more than 2,000 participating fleets in their transition to cleaner technology; 
  • Deployed over 11,000 medium- and heavy-duty clean vehicles across California; 
  • Logged 180+ million cleaner-air miles; and  
  • Reduced nearly 1.5 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent emissions and over 2,200 tons of NOx.
