Available Voucher Funds

 

Heavy-Duty Equipment Funding

The CORE Project will launch with $179 million for freight and other heavy-duty off-road equipment. Individual equipment types have been grouped into 11 funding categories to promote the broad application of CORE Project funding. Funding categories will be funded equally with available funding. Funding category allocations will be reserved for the first six months after the annual program launch. The 11 funding categories have been identified and are listed below. CARB will continue to evaluate needs in the funding categories after the first six months and may continue limits if warranted.  

Once the funding for a particular category has reached its cap, new voucher requests for that equipment type (including conversions of that equipment type) will be placed on a contingency list until the cap is lifted. If funding caps for equipment categories are lifted, projects deployed in DAC and/or operated by a small business will be prioritized to receive funding. However, there is no guarantee that funding will be available for the voucher requests on the contingency list. 

To promote the broad application of CORE funding, $10 million of funding will be set aside for 180 calendar days to ensure small businesses have access to participate.

Professional Landscape Service Equipment Funding

To promote the broad application of CORE funding, $10 million of the total funding allocation will be set aside for 180 calendar days to ensure micro businesses have access to participate. The remaining $17 million will be set aside for small businesses.  

  • If the microbusiness funding set aside is not committed during the first 180 calendar days, it will be released to all eligible small business purchasers.  
  • If during the first 180 calendar days, the microbusiness funding set aside is oversubscribed, all voucher requests in surplus of $10 million will have access to the remaining funds, until all of the zero-emission professional landscaping service funding is available. 
  • If during the first 180 calendar days the small businesses set aside is oversubscribed, voucher will be placed on a contingency list until the cap is lifted. However, there is no guarantee that funding will be available for the voucher requests on the contingency list. While contingency lists will be managed by the Project Administrator, CARB reserves the right to set additional criteria, modify, or eliminate any contingency lists.  

CARB will continue to evaluate needs in the funding set aside after the first 180 calendar days.
