HVIP: California Hybrid Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project

December 7, 2011 8:30am-9:30am PST (San Francisco) / 11:30-12:30pm (New York) / 5:30-6:30pm (Paris/Frankfurt)



In an effort to help speed up the early market introduction of clean, low-carbon hybrid and electric trucks and buses in California, the FY 2010-2011 California Hybrid Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP) went into effect for the State of California in February 2011. Utilizing AB 118 Air Quality Improvement Funding, HVIP provides a unique and streamlined process to assist in accelerating the early market introduction of clean, low-carbon hybrid and electric fleets throughout the state.  The program incentivizes any public or private fleet with vehicles that are registered in California to migrate from ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) vehicles to electric and hybrid models.  It could help deploy up to 800 vehicles in any one year, potentially growing the nation’s early market hybrid truck volumes by 50%, and will cut down on the high incremental cost of these new vehicles in these early market years, when production volumes are still low. There is still over $11 million in funding left.

Join us for this online meeting December 7th, as we discuss the program in depth and what we can expect in 2012. We will cover:
  • HVIP Overview
  • Summary of Program and History of Voucher Disbursements
  • Voucher Amounts
  • Types of Fleets Utilizing HVIP
