AI Summary

This bill aims to transition New York state to 100% zero-emissions for new passenger cars and trucks by 2035, medium-duty and heavy-duty vehicles by 2045, and off-road vehicles and equipment by 2035. The Department of Environmental Conservation, in coordination with other state agencies, is tasked with developing regulations and strategies to achieve these goals, considering factors like safety, technological feasibility, and cost-effectiveness. The bill also requires the development of a zero-emissions vehicle market development strategy and the acceleration of affordable powering options for zero-emissions vehicles, particularly in low-income and disadvantaged communities. Additionally, the bill directs state agencies to identify near-term actions and investment strategies to improve sustainable transportation, freight, and transit options, including support for bicycle, pedestrian, and zero-emissions vehicle infrastructure.
