Zero-emission truck (ZET) deployment in the US increased in the second half of 2025, according to the June 2026 edition of CALSTART’s biannual Zeroing in on ZETs report. During this period, zero-emission trucks (battery-electric and hydrogen fuel cell) represented 4.14% of all truck deployments from July through December 2025, up from 1.32% in the first half of the year.
State-level adoption trends indicate that the transition to zero-emission truck technologies reflects the impact of state policies. Unsurprisingly, California led the nation in deployments. New York and Pennsylvania were tied for second and third place. State funding programs such as the New York Truck Voucher Incentive Program and the Pennsylvania Freight Innovations in Transportation Grant Program contributed to adoption in both states.
Other findings in the report:
- By December 2025, cumulative ZET deployments reached 72,309 nationwide, an increase from 52,787 at the end of 2024.
- The second half of the year saw nearly double the 6,526 vehicles deployed in the first half of the year and a 31% year-over-year increase from the same period in 2024.
- California (12,874), Florida (6,179) and Texas (5,953) continued to lead the nation in cumulative ZET deployments.
- Twenty-two states now have more than 1,000 ZET deployments, up from 18 in the previous market update.
- The percentage of zero-emission yard tractors in operation reached 3.21%, the highest of any segment.
“The market, even absent tax credits, has shown positive growth,” said Jared Schnader, Executive Vice President of Initiatives, CALSTART’s Florida Regional Office. “The data points to a strong zero-emission future as operational cost advantages continue to accelerate over fossil fuels, capital costs continue declining and operator acceptance trends in a positive direction.”
