Zero-Emission Airport Shuttle Bus (ASB) focused conference call. The discussion will focus on zero-emission
shuttle bus infrastructure including: managing demand charges, site specific
construction charges, utility upgrades, cost-sharing opportunities, and
incentive programs. This workgroup
meeting is open to the public and participation is encouraged. The conference call can be accessed with the following

All meeting materials, including a detailed agenda, will be
posted on CARB’s ASB meetings website.
Background
Promoting the development and use of zero-emission airport
transportation will help CARB achieve the emission reduction strategies
outlined in the Mobile Source Strategy, State Implementation Plan and the
Sustainable Freight Action Plan. Vehicles
such as airport shuttle buses that operate on fixed routes, have stop-and-go
operations, maintain low average speeds, and are centrally maintained and
fueled are ideal candidates for zero-emission electric technologies. Additionally, experience gained from
demonstrating the viability of zero-emission operation in these
fleets will benefit other heavy-duty on-road markets and enable cleaner
transportation in other fields.
