Bid Description:
In 2017, Governor Scott delegated authority to the Agency of Natural Resources (ANR) to administer Vermont’s allocation of the Volkswagen Environmental Mitigation Trust (EMT) to offset emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the state. The Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) is the
entity within ANR, the State of Vermont’s designated beneficiary of the Volkswagen Environmental Mitigation Trust, that is responsible for implementation of and compliance with all legal obligations
under the Trust agreement. Based in part on input from the public, other state agencies and the legislature, DEC has determined that funds from Vermont’s allocation of the Trust will be allocated to assess the feasibility of all-electric technologies and begin to catalyze market transformation in Vermont.
Since 2018, DEC has been developing project funding opportunities to implement projects that achieve significant reductions in diesel emissions from diesel powered engines, vehicles and equipment operating in Vermont. The purpose of this Request-for-Applications is to award the remainder of Vermont’s allocation of the Trust to eligible projects that reduce NOx emissions from mobile sources in the most cost-effective way possible and demonstrate the feasibility of all-electric heavy-duty vehicles.
DEC is seeking applications for electric vehicle replacement or repower projects. Up to $5,844,941 is available for project work to be completed between February 2026 and June 30, 2027. Time extensions may be considered on a case-by-case basis.
