Comment:
The proposed modeling assumptions support CNGVC's long-standing position that California's transition to cleaner transportation has been years in the making and is built on renewable biofuels. True commercialization of the medium- and heavy-duty zero emission product is still years away and could remain stalled until advancements, adequate infrastructure and power supply become available and supply chain delays are resolved. Therefore, it is imperative that CARB model a Scoping Plan strategy that includes renewable fuels in the heavy-duty sector to achieve greater GHG emission reductions today as well as in the future. We offer these comments to support and guide that work. RNG-fueled low NOx trucks are immediately available, cost-effective and achieve immediate, significant reductions in short-lived climate and criteria pollutants. This technology, created with significant support from CARB, is in use today and can be easily deployed at scale to provide a 1-to-1 replacement for the current higher-emitting diesel fleet.
