S 2358 Massachusetts Senate · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act setting deadlines for school bus and public fleet electrification, and programs to encourage electrification of private fleets

This bill sets specific deadlines for transitioning vehicle fleets to zero-emission models. It requires all public school buses to be zero-emission by 2035 and all public fleet vehicles (like government buses and transit) to achieve this by 2030. The bill also establishes state programs to provide funding, technical support, and incentives to help private fleet operators (such as delivery companies or trucking services) adopt electric vehicles. These requirements directly affect school districts, public transit agencies, and private fleet businesses operating in the state.
