Equipment must primarily be used to move commercial freight, bulk, or goods for sale or for purchase along California’s trade corridors.
How to Apply
- Review the information and application assistance documents in the sections below.
- Determine the eligibility of your existing equipment and fleet.
- Select the project type.
- Gather information about your equipment and engines (and any installed diesel particulate filters (DPF) installed) before starting your application.
- As applicable - Work with vendors and authorities to prepare proposals and quotes (estimates) for infrastructure projects.
- Contact our staff for information about how to apply. Depending on the project type, you may be able to apply online. All infrastructure projects require a written proposal in addition to basic application submission.

Cargo Handling Equipment (CHE) and Transport Refrigeration Units (TRUs)
The program is currently closed. The Air District accepted Goods Movement Program project applications until August 1, 2022.
The following projects are eligible for funding under this program:
- CHE replacement – replacing yard trucks, rubber-tired gantry cranes (RTG), forklifts, and other mobile lift equipment with electric or fuel-cell equipment.
- CHE conversion – converting diesel-fueled yard trucks or upgrading diesel-powered RTGs to electric power.
- TRU replacement - replacing diesel powered TRUs with zero-emission TRUs or cryogenic TRUs
- Charging and fueling infrastructure – installing battery-charging or CHE hydrogen-fueling infrastructure, or TRU cryogenic refueling infrastructure.
Electric charging, hydrogen fueling, and cryogenic infrastructure
- Equipment owner must agree to replace one or more diesel-fueled units with new equipment powered by the fuel type matching the charging or fueling infrastructure installed for the project.
- Applicant must meet required legal, permitting, and engineering requirements for installation.
- Infrastructure must be within the Bay Area trade corridor.
