The number of available and announced models of zero-emission commercial vehicles in the U.S. and Canada is on track to rise nearly 78% by the end of 2020 compared to the end of last year, Truckinginfo and Truck News are reporting.<\/p>\n

The number of models of zero-emission trucks, buses, and off-road equipment is expected to double between the end of 2019 and 2023, according to a new analysis by Calstart. \u201cZero-emission trucks and buses are on the verge of a major surge in the U.S. and Canada,\u201d said Calstart Northeast Regional Director Ben Mandel during a June 2 media briefing.\u00a0\u201cThe growth we\u2019re seeing is happening really across the board.\u201d<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Calstart\u2019s Commercial Vehicle Drive to Zero program launched an online tool<\/a> cataloging models of current and upcoming zero-emission commercial trucks, buses, and off-road equipment.<\/p>\n

The resulting Zero-Emission Technology Inventory<\/a> shows that the number of zero-emission trucks, buses and off-road equipment models will rise 78% this year, and double by 2023. By the end of 2020 there will be 169 medium- and heavy-duty models in production, compared to 95 offerings in 2019. Within three years, there are expected to be 195 such vehicles.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we\u2019re seeing is a wide diversity of offerings from a broad range of OEMs,\u201d Mandel said. \u201cThis already competitive landscape will grow increasingly so over the next three to four years.\u201d<\/p>\n

A key market is clearly in the form of medium-duty vehicles like box trucks and other straight trucks, thanks in large part to up-fitters that provide battery-electric conversion kits that can be offered with different body types and vehicle chassis, Mandel said.<\/p>\n

Compared to the medium-duty market, \u201cit might take a few more years for this market in heavy-duty trucks \u2013 especially on the longer-range end of the spectrum \u2013 to present themselves and make themselves a fully developed market,\u201d Mandel said.<\/p>\n

Currently, the most promising applications for heavy-duty trucks are in service such as port drayage or regional operations, where heavy-duty trucks with ranges up to 250-300 miles are already available or are scheduled to be by the end of this year.<\/p>\n

Factors behind the growth in zero-emission vehicles include corporate commitments, policy drivers, and increasingly attractive business cases alike.<\/p>\n
