The grants program is soliciting applications nationwide for a grant competition to fund the replacement of existing non-zero-emission Class 6 and 7 heavy-duty vehicles with zero-emission Class 6 and 7 heavy-duty vehicles, which includes Class 6 and Class 7 school buses. Classes are based on gross vehicle weight (GVW) scale, Class 6 (19,501 – 26,000 lbs.) and Class 7 (26,001 – 33,000 lbs.)
