On May 20th, 2025 the AEG San Antonio Truck Electrification Dinner convened 20 cross-sector leaders to address key challenges and opportunities for medium- and heavy-duty (MD/HD) truck electrification across the Texas Triangle—San Antonio/Austin, Houston, and Dallas–Fort Worth. Participants challenged one another to align on an approach to stakeholder engagement, starting with San Antonio, to expedite progress based on key stakeholder needs and priorities, including economic benefits, community health, and system reliability/resilience.
On December 16th, 2021 AEG Stakeholders met in Boston at Holland & Knight offices to identify the most critical mobility and transportation obstacles that the state and city must overcome in order to achieve its carbon and equity goals. At the forefront of this discussion was how to prioritize infrastructure investments to eliminate MHDV pollution emissions by 2030 while prioritizing community health and welfare.
The majority of American commuters use their single person vehicles as their main mode of transportation to work. This presents a major barrier to reducing the amount of non-electric vehicles as their primary mode of commuter transit. In order to reach the goal of net zero emissions by 2050, Boston is encouraging commuters to utilize public transit, carpool, bike, or walk. To decrease the amount of cars on the road and benefit the health of the community, a solution is to make public transit, walking, and biking more accessible to commuters.
