An organization set up as part of the Volkswagen diesel emissions settlement said last week it is accepting proposals for the $2 billion it must spend in the United States on zero emissions vehicle infrastructure and education.
About $800 million of that total is to be targeted at California, “one of the world’s largest ZEV [zero-emission vehicle] markets,” but $1.2 billion will fund separate programs across the country, according to a statement from the group, Electrify America.
