National Zero-Emission Freight Corridor Strategy is a breakthrough Biden Administration program that will build on new national electric vehicle freight corridors designated by the Federal Highway Administration. “It will advance the President’s clean transportation goal to de-carbonize the freight sector to improve our communities, the environment, and the economy,” the administration says.

“Providing ubiquitous and convenient access to electric vehicle (EV) charging and hydrogen refueling along our nation’s freight corridors and at intermodal freight facilities and high-usage ports is key to achieving U.S. goals to promote at least 30 percent ZE-MHDV sales by 2030 and 100 percent sales by 2040. [ZE MDHV – Zero Emission Medium and Heavy Duty Vehicle] The goal of the Strategy is to align public policy and investments by prioritizing, sequencing, and accelerating infrastructure along the National Highway Freight Network (NHFN) in four phases. A core objective of the Strategy is to meet freight truck and technology markets where they are today, determine where they are likely to develop next, and set an ambitious pathway that mobilizes actions to achieve decarbonization.”
