Event Overview

The British Columbia to Baja California: I-5 ZEV Corridor Launch Event is set to take place on June 24, 2026, from 2 PM to 4 PM PST at the Port of Long Beach, California. Organized by UC Davis ITS, CALSTART/Drive to Zero, and EVS39, this event marks a significant milestone in North American freight decarbonization.

Key Highlights

This launch will officially introduce the BC2BC Medium- and Heavy-Duty Zero-Emission Vehicle Corridor, a tri-national initiative aimed at enhancing zero-emission freight transportation across the West Coast. Attendees will witness the collaboration of State and Provincial Departments of Transportation from California, Oregon, Washington, Baja California, and British Columbia, who will announce a coordinated effort to develop a cross-border charging corridor.

The event will feature expert panels discussing the planning and coordination of technical and operational standards necessary for the development of this zero-emission freight corridor. Participants will also have the opportunity to see the latest zero-emission heavy-duty trucks in operation.

This initiative is part of the Global Green Road Corridors Initiative, which aims to create a continuous zero-emission freight network along the I-5 corridor, facilitating sustainable transportation solutions across North America. For more information and to register, visit the event website.
