These projects put more than 9,000 alternative fuel and energy-efficient light-, medium- and heavy-duty vehicles on the road, and establish 542 refueling locations across the country. The vehicles and infrastructure being funded include the use of natural and renewable gas, propane, ethanol, biodiesel, electricity, and hybrid technologies.

Cars That Think
NOVEMBER 28, 2022
There have been vigorous debates pro and con in the United States and elsewhere over whether electric grids can support EVs at scale. Palo Alto’s government has set a very aggressive Sustainability and Climate Action Plan with a goal of reducing its greenhouse gas emissions to 80 percent below the 1990 level by the year 2030.

Vehicles eligible under the new area of interest #4 include: Light-, Medium- and Heavy-Duty Vehicles (LMHDV) using EPACT alternative fuels. LMHDV Fuel cell electric vehicles. LMHDV Electric hybrid vehicles. LMHDV Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. Projects may be proposed that include multiple fuel types (e.g.,

During acceleration, the pressurized gas pushes fluid out of the accumulator, actuating the axial piston unit, which now works as a motor. Maintaining efficiency during energy conversion, hydraulic hybrid systems have the potential to capture a large portion of the braking energy and make use of it more effectively.

The overarching question was not whether the light-duty transportation sector would electrify to a significant degree, but when. As one example in the opening plenary panel session, Peter Darbee, Chairman and CEO of Pacific Gas & Electric Corporation described the opportunity and challenges from his utility’s point of view.
Charged EVs
SEPTEMBER 19, 2023
Anyone who would deploy any kind of large-scale EV charging project needs to work closely (and early) with their local electrical utility. One of the biggest areas we address is the electrification of transportation, because it’s a unique opportunity for utilities in the growth of electricity sales. Factor at a rate of 0.33
