JETSI California Battery-Electric Truck Fleet Tool Kit

Developed by JETSI project partners—including TRC Companies, NFI, Schneider, Electrify Commercial, Black & Veatch, and the Los Angeles Clean Tech Incubator—this toolkit provides fleets with an introduction to the information needed to successfully navigate the transition to battery-electric trucks (BETs). 

What’s Inside? 

  • Introduction: A step-by-step guide on how to deploy battery-electric trucks within your fleet. 
  • Regulatory Insights: Detailed information on the regulations your fleet must comply with to operate in Southern California. 
  • BET Taskforce Recommendations: Guidance on forming a dedicated team to manage your fleet’s transition to electric trucks. 
  • Vehicle Procurement Tips: Criteria and considerations for selecting the best battery-electric trucks to meet your specific fleet needs. 
  • Funding Insights: Insight into grants, incentives, and funding opportunities to help offset the costs of deploying electric trucks. 
  • Infrastructure Guidance: Strategies for planning and implementing the necessary charging infrastructure to support your BET fleet. 
  • Public Resources: A curated list of public resources to help you navigate the transition to zero-emission vehicles. 

This toolkit is based on real-world insights from JETSI project partners who have successfully piloted battery-electric trucks and deployed supporting charging infrastructure in Southern California. While the toolkit focuses on battery-electric vehicles, it is part of a broader effort to transition the freight industry to zero-emission technologies.
