West Coast from Canada to Mexico agrees to build zero-emission trucking corridor
In California, California, British Columbia, Oregon, Washington, and Baja California are working together on a network of charging and hydrogen fueling stations intended to support zero-emission trucks traveling the West Coast. Government leaders announced the British Columbia to Baja California ZEV Corridor, or BC2BC, Aug. 26 at the Port of Long Beach.
The initiative would eventually allow battery-electric and hydrogen fuel-cell trucks to travel from Vancouver, British Columbia, to Baja California, Mexico, along a West Coast freight corridor centered on I-5 in the U.S. The initial buildout is expected to include 20 electric truck charging stations and three hydrogen fueling stations. Nearly 10,000 trucks travel the corridor on an average day. The five governments also committed to coordinating technical standards, infrastructure planning, and other requirements so trucks can use charging and fueling infrastructure across jurisdictions.
