This EPA Region 1 Project Grant, awarded under the Clean Heavy-Duty Vehicles Program (CFDA 66.049), provides $4,172,056 in funding to the Town of Hingham, Massachusetts to replace 10 non-zero-emission heavy-duty vehicles with new zero-emission vehicles. The grant supports the purchase and installation of associated charging equipment, as well as workforce development training for staff on the maintenance, charging, and operation of the new zero-emission vehicles. Through a subaward to Highland Electric Fleets, the Town of Hingham will also conduct project management, vehicle procurement, charger installation, and community engagement activities. The expected outcomes include reduced greenhouse gas and air pollutant emissions, lower fuel consumption and school district operating costs, improved air quality, and increased public awareness of the environmental and economic benefits of the implemented zero-emission vehicle technology.
