The California Clean Off-Road Equipment Voucher Incentive Project (CORE) is offering $179 Million to disadvantaged communities and small businesses in California to have access to zero-emission off-road equipment.

The CORE incentive project “is administered by the clean-transportation technology nonprofit CALSTART and funded by California Climate Investments, a statewide initiative that puts billions of Cap-and-Trade dollars to work reducing greenhouse gas emissions, strengthening the economy, and improving public health and the environment — particularly in disadvantaged communities.”

Eligible equipment includes:

• Construction equipment (such as excavators, bulldozers and skid steers)
• Commercial harbor craft
• Large forklifts
• Cargo-handling equipment
• Railcar movers and freight locomotives
• Agricultural tractors
• Airport cargo loaders
• Mobile power units.
