Air Quality Improvement Program (AB 118)
| The Air Quality Improvement Program (AQIP), established by the California
Alternative and Renewable Fuel, Vehicle Technology, Clean Air, and
Carbon Reduction Act of 2007 (Assembly Bill (AB) 118, Statutes of 2007,
Chapter 750), is a voluntary incentive program administered by the
Air Resources Board (ARB or Board) to fund clean vehicle and equipment
projects, research on biofuels production and the air quality impacts
of alternative fuels, and workforce training. |

Current AQIP Projects On April 24, 2009, the Board adopted the AQIP Guidelines and approved the AQIP Funding Plan for Fiscal Year 2009-10 (Funding Plan). The AQIP Guidelines establish the minimum administrative requirements for the program while the Funding Plan identifies the project categories and funding targets for FY 2009-10. The Funding Plan includes funding for four commercialization/deployment projects as well as funding for advanced technology demonstration.
Each fiscal year, ARB must submit a proposed Funding Plan to the Board for approval. The Funding Plan serves as the blueprint for expending the AQIP funds appropriated to ARB in the State budget. The plan establishes ARB’s priorities for the funding cycle, describes the projects ARB intends to fund, and sets funding targets for each project. The Funding Plan is paired with regulatory guidelines to direct ARB’s implementation of the AQIP. The AQIP Funding Plan for Fiscal Year 2010-11 is currently under development and will be presented to the Board for consideration in early summer 2010. |
