Leaders from the MSRC, California Air Resources Board (CARB), the California Energy Commission (CEC), and South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) all spoke during the press event and recognized Schneider’s clean air commitment that was funded through the innovative JETSI (Joint Electric Truck Scaling Initiative) partnership designed to demonstrate strategies to successfully scale market penetration of zero-emission technologies.</p> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-more field--type-link field--label-hidden field--item"><a href="http://www.cleantransportationfunding.org/news/2023/msrc-celebrates-new-zero-emission-truck-and-car-charging-investments">Read more here</a></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-extra field--type-text-long field--label-visually_hidden"> <div class="field--label sr-only">Extra</div> <div class="field--item"><article class="embedded-entity"><a href="/sites/default/files/facts_at_a_glance_june_2023_v2_0.jpg" data-lightbox="photolibrary" data-title="facts at a glance"> <img src="/sites/default/files/facts_at_a_glance_june_2023_v2_0.jpg" alt="facts at a glance" typeof="foaf:Image" class="img-responsive" /></a> </article></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-notification-category field--type-entity-reference field--label-above"> <div class="field--label">Notification Category</div> <div class="field--item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/31" hreflang="en">Electronic Newsletter</a></div> </div> Thu, 29 Jun 2023 19:32:56 +0000 sam@betterworldgroup.com 2714 at http://www.cleantransportationfunding.org http://www.cleantransportationfunding.org/node/2688 <span>Clean Air Roadmap, March 2023</span> <div class="field field--name-field-header-image field--type-image field--label-hidden field--item"> <a href="/sites/default/files/newsletter-headers/clean_air_roadmap_header_2023_0.jpg" data-lightbox="photolibrary" data-title="clean air roadmap header"> <img src="/sites/default/files/newsletter-headers/clean_air_roadmap_header_2023_0.jpg" width="773" height="264" alt="clean air roadmap header" typeof="foaf:Image" class="img-responsive" /></a> </div> <span><span lang="" about="/user/31" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="" content="sam@betterworldgroup.com">sam@betterworl…</span></span> <span>Wed, 03/01/2023 - 09:30</span> <div class="field field--name-field-stories field--type-entity-reference-revisions field--label-visually_hidden"> <div class="field--label sr-only">Stories</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field--item"> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--newsletter-cell paragraph--view-mode--default"> <div class="field field--name-field-story-title field--type-string field--label-hidden field--item"> New Funding Opportunity for Zero-Emission Microtransit Services</div> <div class="field field--name-field-story-summary field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field--item"><article class="embedded-entity align-left"><a href="/sites/default/files/styles/thumbnail/public/clouds_5.jpg?itok=hL3EQSZX" data-lightbox="photolibrary" data-title="clouds"> <img src="/sites/default/files/styles/thumbnail/public/clouds_5.jpg?itok=hL3EQSZX" alt="clouds" typeof="foaf:Image" class="img-responsive" /></a> </article><p><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="line-height:normal"><span style="vertical-align:baseline"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif">The MSRC has an exciting new funding opportunity for zero-emission microtransit services in the South Coast Air District.
