Southern California Continues Dedication to Clean Commercial Transportation Despite Economic Uncertainty and Politics

Southern California continues to lead the charge in advancing clean, commercial transportation technologies, despite being buffeted by winds of economic uncertainty and global politics. In a region long challenged by some of the nation’s worst air quality — particularly in San Bernardino, Riverside, and Los Angeles Counties — local and regional stakeholders like the California Air Resources Board (CARB) and South Coast Air Quality Management District (South Coast AQMD) remain committed to economic progress, clearer skies, and healthier lungs. Even amid shifting federal priorities, Southern California is doubling down on its efforts to issue incentives to trucking fleets who adopt the latest near-zero and zero-emission technologies.
