The Road to Zero Emission Trucks: Manufacturing
The government and a growing number of American companies have embraced the goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. As truck manufacturers shift gears to produce zero-emission vehicles, a new infrastructure and jobs ecosystem is taking shape. Policy initiatives will lead the way in determining whether the trucks will be built domestically, where the jobs will be created, and if the nation can meet its goal.
The second of The Hill’s three-part series will bring together lawmakers, truck manufacturers and business leaders to discuss policies supporting zero-emission trucks, domestic manufacturing of these vehicles and job growth in this sector.
