High Mileage Fleet Program
Apply for funding for the purchase or lease of light- and medium-duty zero-emissions vehicles in very high-mileage fleets operating in the Bay Area.
This program is now closed. Please review the other open funding opportunities by using the navigation on the left.
The High Mileage Fleet Program is an incentive program that offers grant funding to help offset a portion of the cost of purchasing or leasing new light- and medium-duty zero-emissions vehicles for very high mileage fleets that operate within the Air District’s jurisdiction.
In fiscal year ending 2021, up to $2 million is available and will be awarded to qualifying projects on a first-come, first-served basis. This program is funded through the Air District’s Transportation Fund for Clean Air Regional Fund, which provides grants to improve air quality within the nine-county Bay Area by reducing emissions of criteria pollutants from on-road vehicles.
For a complete list of eligibility requirements and application instructions, please review the Program Guidance(401 Kb PDF, 10 pgs, posted 6/15/2020) and other materials referenced below in the Resources section.
Eligibility
Public and private organizations that operate very high mileage fleets within the boundaries of the Air District’s jurisdiction are eligible to apply for funding.
Key eligibility program requirements:
- Vehicles must be new (model year 2020+) and have a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of 8,500 pounds or lighter
- Eligible vehicle types include battery-electric and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles certified by the California Air Resources Board as meeting zero-emission vehicle standards
- Each project (fleet deployment) must qualify for at least $100,000 in award funding
- Vehicles and equipment must be maintained and operated for a minimum of 3 years and achieve a minimum usage requirement, which correlates to the amount of funding awarded
This web page provides an overview of the program. For a complete list of eligibility requirements and application instructions, please review the Program Guidance and other materials referenced below in the Resources section.
Funding Options
Light- and medium-duty vehicles, with a gross vehicle weight rating up to 8,500 pounds, are eligible for funding as described below:
| Gross Vehicle Weight Rating | Grant Amount per Vehicle | Minimum Bay Area Mileage per Year | |
| Passenger Vehicles | up to 8,500 lbs | up to $5,000 or 90% of the cost to purchase or lease a new ZEV, whichever is lower | 41,000 |
Funding amounts were determined using the most recent United States Environmental Protection Agency approved EMFAC model for cost-effectiveness and emissions reductions.
