Interested in adding zero-emissions vehicles (ZEVs) to your fleet in California but don’t know how to navigate the rebates and incentives? Join this Fleet Forward: the Tour seminar to help you act now, not miss a crucial deadline, or leave money on the table.

To motivate sales of ZEVs in California, fleets have access to substantial rebates and incentives that can finance the initial cost of the ZEV by 15% to 90%. But navigating the grant process can be complicated for the uninitiated, as qualifications depend on duty type, vehicle/weight class, fleet size, organization type, location, and more.

During this seminar, two experts can help attendees with questions, such as: What rebates are stackable? When do they sunset? How do I reinvest the money saved in my fleet?

Lisa McGhee, ZEV programs and affairs manager of Tom’s Truck Center, will share her insights on ZEVs in fleets. At her company, she is responsible for new ZEV business opportunities, expanding the ZEV technology programs, and serves as an advocate for ZEV policies and affairs.

Maria Neve, vice president of eFMC services at Inspiration Mobility, helps fleets to transition to electrificiation with solutions such as charging-as-a-service and at-home charging.

On June 12 at the Doubletree Port of Los Angeles, Fleet Forward: the Tour will convene a one-day event that will address ACF and other regulations, with insights and solutions for fleet compliance as well as updates on accessing rebates and incentives.

Held in conjunction with NAFA-the Fleet Management Association, the June 12 Tour stop agenda includes seminars, tabletop exhibits, networking, lunch, and a vehicle ride and drive.

This year, the Tour consists of a West and East Coast event. The second Tour stop will take place in Somerset, N.J. on Sept. 10.
