The Pacific Coast Collaborative (PCC) Workshop on Zero Emission Vehicles in Fleets will be held on July 23, 2104 in Portland, Oregon. The workshop is designed for people involved in managing and procuring fleet vehicles, representatives of organizations involved in the ZEV supply chain, ZEV policymakers, and people working on ZEV issues for non-profit and academic institutions.
This meeting, which will take place the day before the EV Roadmap conference in Portland, will focus on opportunities, resources and strategies for incorporating zero emission vehicles (ZEVs) into public and private sector fleets on the West Coast. It kicks off an initiative of the Governors of California, Oregon, and Washington and the Premier of British Columbia to expand the deployment of ZEVs in fleets as described in the PCC’s Pacific Coast Action Plan on Climate and Energy.
The workshop will be an opportunity to:
| Learn from West Coast fleet managers and others on the leading edge of ZEV adoption about addressing key challenges for ZEVs in fleets | |
| Recommend next steps on coordinated regional public and private sector efforts for expanding ZEVs in fleets | |
| Inform the development of a fleet manager toolkit for ZEV assessment and deployment | |
| Identify and understand key opportunities for ZEVs in public and private sector fleets for light-, medium-, and heavy-duty vehicles | |
| Describe specific barriers for shifting fleet procurement investments to ZEVs – and collaboratively identify the market and policy strategies for overcoming these barriers | |
| Hear from organizations that are ready to take a pledge to join the PCC initiative |
