What's interesting about Toyota's entry into the EV market with 6 fully electric vehicles to launch starting in 2020 is that they were on the fence for so long. Another example of a major automaker saying, "Whoops, we underestimated demand on this one." caranddriver.com/news/a27887943…

Very good overview: the future of trucking is zero-emissions, so how do we get there...and when? I agree the options are: battery-electric, hydrogen fuel cell, and hybrid solutions. But when, and what role does renewable natural gas play? trucker.com/technology/zer…

Daily fixed route is exactly where I could see autonomous vehicles getting established. Walmart's pilots with autonomous van startup Gatik to "automate Walmart’s 'hub and spoke' warehouse system" makes so much sense. ow.ly/Pi4C50uI50O

Why we need to keep the focus on freight, esp. home delivery, with great examples of companies leading the way to make this sector the next "renewable" revolution (except it's just called "zero-emission delivery"). business.edf.org/blog/2019/07/1…

Bipartisan transportation Senate bill released. This SHOULD be bipartisan. Headlines: -$3Bn to cut emissions -$1Bn for EV & hydrogen infrastructure -Up 27% from the last highway bill Isn't enough, but it's a start. greentechmedia.com/articles/read/…

Do you agree? "Charge up! The electric vehicle market is reaching its tipping point" thedriven.io/2019/08/01/in-… If not, what's your milepost for the electric vehicle tipping point in the U.S.?

Electrifying fleets is a BIG opportunity to grow demand for utilities, but that connection isn't easy to make. My colleagues recently supported PG&E, Ryder, and Pittsburg Unified school district to produce this educational piece that helps fleets plug in. act-news.com/webinar/pge-we…

Must-read quick article on hydrogen, it's potential for clean energy and transport goals, and "hydrogen v. electric". Best summary on why hydrogen is a linchpin for a low-emission, low-carbon economy and why we need both hydrogen and EV. greenbiz.com/article/truth-…

Even bigger news than I thought we might see from Amazon's investment in electric truck startup Rivian: Amazon to order 100,000 electric delivery trucks. Superb biz model innovation...1) Invest, 2) Buy, 3) Save, then deliver emissions-free. techcrunch.com/2019/09/19/ama…

There aren't many places investors can go to see the technology, entrepreneurs, and successful growth businesses in advanced tech for fleets. So we decided to host them where we already have nearly 300 companies with a booth and 4,000 attendees. lnkd.in/gY6EuxJ
