Revenge of the Electric Car

It’s been a long time coming, but we have finally achieved the first “cold ironing&# of a tanker in the Port of Long Beach. Normally, these engines crank out massive amounts of pollution, equal to “a day’s worth of driving by 187,000 cars,&# according to estimates by the Port of Long Beach.

That push is particularly focused on the trucking routes between the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach and the distribution centers of the Inland Empire – which Ontario lies at the heart of. This is too long a trip for most BEV trucks (except one, at least – we’ve seen the Tesla Semi do similar mileage ).

We’re also only 12 miles from the Port of Los Angeles and the Port of Long Beach – the two largest stationary sources off air pollution and all their related greenhouse gases in L.A. I volunteer with GRID Alternatives installing solar panels on low income and Habitat for Humanity houses.
