Texas Emissions Reduction Plan (TERP): TERP offers grants to replace or retrofit vehicles and equipment to reduce emissions. This includes upgrading older vehicles to newer models that meet environmental standards.
Texas Natural Gas Vehicle Grant Program (TNGVGP): This program provides grants for owners of heavy-duty or medium-duty motor vehicles to repower the vehicle with a natural gas engine or replace the vehicle with a natural gas vehicle.
Diesel Emissions Reduction Incentive Grants: Part of TERP, this initiative aims to reduce diesel emissions by offering incentives to replace older diesel vehicles with newer, cleaner models.
Federal Tax Credits: The Inflation Reduction Act extends several tax credits for alternative fuels, including a $0.50/Gallon Natural Gas/Propane Federal Tax Credit available through December 31, 2024.
Fleet Recognition Programs: The Lone Star Clean Fuels Alliance also acknowledges fleets that take significant steps towards sustainability and cleaner fuel usage.
Each program has specific requirements and deadlines, so it's advisable for fleet operators to contact the respective program administrators or visit their websites for the most accurate and detailed application information.
