CTE is proud to announce its continued success in developing winning proposals for transit agencies across the US through the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) Low or No Emission Vehicle Program (Low-No) and the Grants for Buses and Bus Facilities Competitive Program (Buses and Bus Facilities). Out of the nearly $1.5 billion awarded through both programs this year, the agencies that CTE supported were awarded more than $320 million.

The California Transit Training Consortium (CTTC) is pleased to announce the hiring of the Center for Transportation and the Environment (CTE) to provide management services in support of CTTC's training initiatives. With this partnership, CTE's Maggie Pears has been named as CTTC's new Executive Director.

Workforce training and skill development for these new technologies are essential components of successful technology deployment. Over the past year, CTE has developed a Workforce Development Planning methodology that helps fleets understand when and how to modify their current training protocols to upskill for new ZEB expertise.

The Zero Emission Bus Resource Alliance (ZEBRA) is a professional association of transit agencies committed to operating zero-emission buses (ZEBs), with a combined presence of over 500 ZEBs in service and countless more in the procurement phase.
