San Joaquin Valley Clean Transportation Center

The California Energy Commission awarded an $1.2 million Clean Transportation Program grant to CALSTART to establish the San Joaquin Transportation Center, which works to accelerate the use of clean vehicles and fuels and help the region more quickly meet its air quality targets.

The San Joaquin Transportation Center provides technical assistance, project development expertise, and support with acquiring funding for San Joaquin Valley vehicle fleet owners, local governments, businesses, and residents. The center will expand the use of zero-emission vehicles, clean trucks, and high-efficiency, non-road equipment.

The center helped develop the project that successfully opened 13 transportable solar electric vehicle-charging stations, made by Envision Solar, throughout Fresno County. The stations support California’s efforts on climate change and provide access to electric vehicle charging in underserved San Joaquin Valley communities.
