Secure Funding from $12,000 up to $340,000 Per Truck Replacement, Depending on Fuel Type and Truck Class Size
The New York City Clean Trucks Program (NYCCTP) has relaunched using new MTA funding with updated incentive funding amounts and expanded geographic eligibility. This allows fleets operating in and around New York City and select New Jersey communities to upgrade to cleaner, modern truck technologies.
The NYCCTP offers rebate incentive funding to reduce diesel exhaust emissions by replacing older, heavy polluting diesel trucks with new battery-electric or EPA emission compliant alternative fuel (compressed natural gas, diesel-electric hybrid, and plug-in hybrid electric) and diesel trucks. The NYCCTP is a unique and exciting environmental initiative offered by the New York City Department of Transportation (NYC DOT) to promote sustainable transportation and a cleaner environment in New York City.
With this new rebate incentive funding, the NYCCTP has expanded to include the Disadvantaged Communities (DACs) and Industrial Business Zones (IBZs) of New York City. Four counties in New Jersey are now eligible for fleet owners to receive funding, including Bergen, Essex, Hudson, and Union. Through these incentives and a network of resources, the NYCCTP is helping local commercial fleet operators transition away from diesel and towards clean, advanced trucks and transportation technologies.

How Alternative Fuel Trucks Help New York City
Air pollution remains a leading environmental threat to the health of New Yorkers.
Levels of air pollution continue to cause serious health problems, contributing to hospital admissions and deaths from both heart and lung problems. It is estimated that harmful particulate matter (PM2.5) contributes to more than 2,000 deaths and over 6,000 emergency visits and hospitalization for cardiovascular and respiratory disease each year.
Alternative fuel trucks reduce harmful emissions in our communities and promote a healthier and safer New York City.
VW Trust Funding for Class 8 BEVs
There is some funding still available through the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) under the Volkswagen Diesel Emission Environmental Mitigation Trust Agreement for State Beneficiaries, Puerto Rico, and the District of Columbia (VW Trust). This funding is available for Class 8 BEVs that will be registered in the nine-county New York Metropolitan Area (Bronx, Kings, Nassau, New York, Queens, Richmond, Rockland, Suffolk, and Westchester).
