This grant is for creating finance programs aimed at significantly reducing diesel emissions nationwide. Offered by the EPA’s SmartWay Program and National Clean Diesel Campaign (NCDC), the funding supports the establishment of national, tribal, regional, state, or local finance initiatives. These programs, such as low-cost leases or revolving loans, should incentivize the purchase or lease of eligible retrofitted vehicles and equipment through favorable terms or rates. The core objective is to maximize total project funds available for financing diesel emission reduction solutions, ensuring the programs are sustainable and contribute to cleaner air across the United States.
