CARB to Address FY 2023-24 Funding Plan for Clean Transportation Incentives Nov. 16

The California Air Resources Board (CARB) will hold a public meeting at
9 a.m. on Thursday, November 16, 2023 to consider approval of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2023-24 Funding Plan for Clean Transportation Incentives.

The Plan establishes CARB’s priorities, policies, and implementation details for a suite of projects, including the Clean Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP).

The Plan includes an allocation of over $400 million for school buses, small truck fleets, and drayage trucks to be administered by HVIP. Over $500 million is available now for new voucher requests across all vehicle types and fleets, updated daily at www.CaliforniaHVIP.org/Funding.

Drayage Truck Funding from
Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach to Stack with HVIP Now Available

Starting November 14, 2023, $60 million provided by the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach is now available for voucher requests for zero-emission Class 8 tractors performing drayage operations through HVIP.

Voucher enhancements funded by the Ports are $100,000 per truck for fleets size 10 and smaller and $75,000 for fleets larger than 10, additional to the HVIP drayage voucher amount of $150,000 per truck and any other applicable HVIP voucher enhancements listed on californiahvip.org/funding. Purchaser qualifications are as defined in the HVIP Implementation Manual. ​​​​

Important note: In order to align with near-term policy changes anticipated from the CARB Funding Plan that would alter fleet size eligibility and voucher amounts, requests for port funding submitted on 11/14, 11,15, or 11/16 by fleets size 20 and smaller will retain their place in line and advance to the status of Accepted Pending Signed Forms in the Online Voucher Processing Center after 11/17. Additional information will be provided to affected dealers and purchasers.
