The bill sets deadlines for the electrification of school buses and public fleets in Massachusetts. It mandates that fifty percent of medium- and heavy-duty vehicles in public fleets be electric by 2030, seventy-five percent by 2033, and one hundred percent by 2035. For school buses, the deadlines are the same. The bill also requires light-duty vehicles in public fleets to be fifty percent electric by 2027, seventy-five percent by 2030, and one hundred percent by 2033. The secretary is tasked with developing data collection and reporting mechanisms to ensure compliance.
