Stay up-to-date concerning Advanced Clean Truck regulation news

Technological innovation and government policies will be instrumental in the transition away from fossil fuels. An approach that transcends individual initiatives and embraces collaboration across the various commercial sectors with policymakers is paramount. Without long-term policies that provide certainty to equipment manufacturers, buyers and end users, we run the risk of significant inflationary consequences. The commercial sector is supportive of environmental initiatives, but a practical approach that also encompasses realistic timeframes is a must.

Is Massachusetts Ready?

In December 2022, the American Transportation Research Institute published Charging Infrastructure Challenges for the US Electric Vehicle Fleet. The study found that full electrification of the US vehicle fleet would require a large percentage of the country's present electricity generation.

Domestic long-haul trucking would use more than 10 percent of the electricity generated in the country today - while an all-electric US vehicle fleet would use more than 40 percent. Some states would need to generate as much as 60 percent more electricity than is presently produced.
