AB 118 Advanced Technology Demonstration Projects

This page last reviewed May 24, 2012.

The purpose of the Advanced Technology Demonstration Projects is to help accelerate the next generation of advanced technology vehicles, equipment, or emission controls which are not yet commercialized. Local air districts and other public agencies would be eligible to apply for these projects to demonstrate promising technologies to reduce emissions in their regions. These projects were approved for up to $2 million in the AQIP FY 2011-12 AQIP Funding Plan.

For more information regarding the Advanced Technology Demonstration Projects, see the AQIP FY 2011-12 Funding Plan or contact Earl Landberg of ARB at tel. (916) 323-1384 or e-mail: elandber@arb.ca.gov .
