The Green Truck Association (GTA) offers its members helpful insights and practical tools for designing and analyzing the value of their green vehicles or vehicle systems under consideration. Using a broad range of reliable and respected sources, the GTA has researched and compiled the most comprehensive and dependable information currently available.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the California Air Resources Board (CARB) have established requirements and validated many technologies relating to “going green” in the work truck industry. In turn, these certifications and qualifications have become adopted as an effective way to identify technologies that contribute to increased work truck productivity and fuel economy.
