TCI News and Updates

Representatives from states that signed the zero emission vehicle memorandum of understanding (ZEV MOU) announced that over 250,000 plug-in electric vehicles have been sold nationwide. The ZEV MOU signatories (California, Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, and Vermont) gathered at the California Air Resources Board meeting in Diamond Bar, California, to announce this milestone and reaffirm their commitment to putting 3.3 million zero-emission vehicles on the road in their states by 2025.  Six of the eight ZEV MOU states - CT, MD, MA, NY, RI, and VT - participate in the Transportation and Climate Initiative (TCI) and its Northeast Electric Vehicle Network.

An analysis released by the Georgetown Climate Center presents an overview of what TCI jurisdictions are doing to achieve sustainable communities outcomes, how their legal frameworks govern land use and transportation policies, and notable programs or policies from a sustainable communities perspective.
