Get ZEV Ready for Advanced Clean Fleets with Merchants’ End-to-End Solutions

What is the Advanced Clean Fleets Regulation?

The California Air Resource Board (CARB) is implementing the new Advanced Clean Fleets (ACF) Regulation as the next step in reducing emissions and protecting the health of those who live in California. Fleets that operate in California or pass through the state will be required to follow these new rules (First compliance milestone effective January 1, 2025). Abiding by these new standards will present a challenge for fleets not already on the path to ZEV adoption. That’s why the EV team at Merchants Fleet is ready to provide expert analysis of your fleet and help you become complaint – so you can avoid fines of up to $10,000 per violation, per day.

Merchants is helping clients unlock the full potential of green initiatives for their fleets, through the use of grants, incentives, and tax rebates. Download this presentation to learn about some of the strategies we use to help clients navigate the complexities of the application process, as well as insights into where to find funding opportunities, and the kinds of documentation required to build a strong application. Contact us today to learn more about how our grants & incentives program can help move your electrification projects forward.
