Washington Green Transportation Program report to the Washington State Legislature November 2025
Full text linkIn 2019, the Washington State Legislature passed “Advancing green transportation adoption,” legislation which directed the Washington State University (WSU) Energy Program to establish and administer a technical assistance and education program for public agencies on the use of alternative fuels and vehicles (Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 2042, Chapter 287, Laws of 2019). Since our foundation, WSU Energy Program’s Green Transportation Program (GTP) has provided our services to all public agencies, including cities, counties, Tribes, transit agencies, school districts, colleges and universities, utilities and public utility districts (PUDs), public ports, and other public entities to accelerate the transition to zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs). This report summarizes the recent accomplishments and impacts of the GTP during the 2023-25 biennium. It details our extensive education program, the results of our direct technical assistance, several focused initiatives addressing the targeted needs of our partners, and our plans for integration into the new Washington Zero-Emissions Incentive Program (WAZIP)
