Drive to Zero helps nations tackle climate change and
urban pollution while spurring innovation
• Freight fuel consumption and GHGs are forecasted to grow four-fold through 2050.
• Urban regions suffer the worst impacts of air pollution in an increasingly urbanized world.
• Despite being relatively small in number, HDVs represent a disproportionate share of
energy consumption and emissions.
• Technology innovation can spearhead industrial development.

Drive to Zero is a strategic international initiative to
catalyze the growth of zero-emission MHDVs
2025
Beachhead near- and zero-emission
applications for MHDVs are commercially
viable and cost-competitive in target global
markets.
2040Zero-emission MHDVs dominate in their
segments.
Our “beachhead” strategy targets vehicle segments
where zero-emission technology is likely to succeed
Momentum in e-buses creates first steps for commercial vehicles
Electric technology is highly transferable, speeding
production across vehicle types
BYD energy storage modules transferable
across range of bus, truck and grid backup
applications. Inverters, controllers and
voltage distribution units have a high degree
of transferability between bus and truck
platforms.

• Same power train in autonomous electric dump trucks, marine system
Drive to Zero focuses on the “HOW”
TARGET ACTION
• Target first-success beachhead markets where electrification works now. Typically urban applications where vehicles travel along known routes and return to base for charging.
BUILD ECOSYSTEMS
• Build supporting “ecosystems” of success in key first-mover regions made up of aligned policies, incentives, infrastructure, and pilot projects.
COLLABORATE
• Work concurrently and collaboratively between regions and industry worldwide to encourage global supply chain of critical components and manufacturers.
EXPAND
• Expand to succeeding success markets as supply chain grows, costs decrease, and business case expands.
Program was launched last September and has gained incredible momentum
Official Partner event of
Clean Energy Ministerial (CEM 10)
Global Stakeholder Workshop:
Vancouver, Canada – May 28
Canada was the first national government to officially support Drive to Zero
60+ organizations worldwide have signed the Pledge
The Pledge
Cities, governments, manufacturers,
fleets and fuel suppliers agree to:
- Work together to accelerate early
markets for zero- and near-zero
emission trucks, buses and
equipment.
- Share information with peer
regions.
- Access best tools, research,
assistance, data.

Actions underway
RECRUIT. Recruit new partners and strengthen engagement with current partners.
YEAR 1 YEAR 2 YEAR 3
DEVELOP. Expand and share tools to enable partners to take action.
MOBILIZE. Implement leadership structure, and integrate the strategy into the world influencer’s
plans and existing networks.
COMMUNICATE. Disseminate materials, tools, and expertise.
SUPPORT. Support and grow capability of partners in key segments and regions.
MEASURE. Measure progress, adjust course (and accelerate
action).
Drive to Zero is becoming the guiding strategy for organizing partner networks,
and regional partners are being developed in first-mover regions
