This grant supports (a) a campaign to accelerate electric urban freight delivery in U.S. cities, (b) campaigns for key companies to support the transition to 100% electric transport, and (c) campaigns to support key U.S. states and their commitment to 100% vehicle electrification by 2030. This grant is a long-running part of the foundation’s strategy to accelerate the share of electric vehicles in the U.S. in order to decarbonize transportation. (Substrategy: Electrification)
