To replace older, high-polluting transit, school, and shuttle buses with new battery-electric or fuel-cell buses. Replacing an older bus with a zero-emission bus eliminates particulate matter and other pollutants that impact children and residents riding the buses, as well as residents throughout California communities.

Access Clean California is a public service program that helps people find and apply for the energy assistance programs they qualify for and make the switch to cleaner vehicles. Eligible Californians can lower the cost of buying or leasing a clean vehicle, access transit and micro-mobility options, and reduce pollution in their communities. The Tribal Energy & Climate Collaborative is partnering with Access Clean CA to provide one-on-one guided support for income-eligible members of California Native American Tribes to navigate the program with ease.

HVIP accelerates the deployment of zero-emission and plug-in hybrid trucks and buses and trucks with electric power take-off (ePTO) systems in California. The program provides incentives (vouchers) to offset the cost of advanced clean commercial vehicles.

Clean Cars 4 All (CC4A) is an incentive program offered to income-qualified residents in disadvantaged communities. The program provides grants to help residents retire their old vehicles and replace them with zero or near-zero emission vehicles or transit cards. CC4A is part of California Climate Investments.
