The Port of Los Angeles is seeking proposals for its Zero-Emission Truck Purchasing Incentive Project for the purchase of at least 10 battery-electric, Class 8 drayage trucks.
Proposals are eligible to all Licensed Motor Carriers (LMCs) currently registered in the Port Drayage Truck Registry.
This purchasing incentive will provide up to US$300,000 (c. £223,425) per battery-electric truck, with a maximum award of $24m (c. £17.87m) per LMC.
Total available funding of $75m (c. £55m), with $50m (c. £37m) from the U.S. EPA Clean Ports Program grant award and $25m (c. £18m) from the Port’s Clean Truck Fund Rate, has been earmarked to fund the Zero-Emission Truck Purchasing Incentive Project.
As part of the U.S. EPA Clean Ports Program, the Port of Los Angeles and Harbor Community Benefit Foundation, in collaboration with marine terminal operator partners APM Terminals, Everport Terminal Services, Fenix Marine Services, TraPac, Inc. and Yusen Terminals LLC, will allocate more than $600m (c. £446m)
This will take the form of a grant – and matched – funding toward projects that support the Ports’ goal to transition to 100% ZE terminal operations, while fostering high-quality jobs and public engagement.
Contracting questions may be submitted through Monday, July 20. Proposals are due by 3pm, Thursday, December 3.
