Biden-Harris Administration Announces $3 Billion in Funding to Electrify Ports and Reduce Emissions from Heavy-Duty Vehicles

The Biden-Harris Administration has announced investments of $3 billion to fund zero-emission port equipment and technology and to help ports develop climate action plans, with another $1 billion to reduce emissions from heavy-duty commercial vehicles, including those that travel in and out of ports. These investments are part of President Biden’s Investing in America agenda to make America’s ports safer and more reliable, reduce costs for the American people, improve air quality and public health, and position the U.S. for economic success. The investments also deliver on the President’s Justice40 Initiative, which is working to ensure that 40 percent of the overall benefits of federal investments in climate change, clean energy, and other areas flow to disadvantaged communities that are marginalized, underserved, and overburdened by pollution.
