The fiscal year 2024–2025 Clean Off-Road Equipment Voucher Incentive Project (CORE) heavy-duty funding cycle officially closed on November 19 — and the response was overwhelming. With over $36 million in voucher funds available, this cycle saw strong engagement from purchasers, dealers, OEMs, and public agencies across California. The demand underscores the growing momentum for zero-emission off-road equipment, and the critical role CORE plays in accelerating clean technology adoption.
KEY HIGHLIGHTS
- Small Businesses Lead the Way: Over 90% of requested vouchers came from small businesses, with 10% from government agencies, affirming CORE’s mission to empower these stakeholders.
- High Demand in Agriculture & Construction: Requests from these sectors exceeded available funding by 4x, underscoring the importance of CORE in reducing upfront costs and driving zero-emission adoption.
- 600+ Pieces of Equipment Requested: This number highlights the urgent need for continued investment in clean off-road technology.
SUCCESS STORIES
The Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts (LACSD) partnered with CORE to deploy 14 pieces of zero-emission off-road equipment. The results have been boosted efficiency, improved working conditions, and lowered operational costs.
