CARB Approves Rule for Zero-Emission Airport Shuttles
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) has approved a rule that will require fixed-route shuttles serving the state’s 13 largest airports to transition to 100% zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) by 2035.
The regulation applies to public and private fleets, including parking facilities, rental car agencies and hotels. With almost 1,000 airport shuttles in operation, the regulation is expected to reduce greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions by at least 500,000 metric tons, according to CARB’s estimates.
