We are thrilled to announce that TPA has successfully secured $250,000 in competitive funding in partnership with the City of Guadalupe through the Central Coast Community Energy‘s Electrify Your Fleet grant program!

This transformative funding will help fund a transit bus that is projected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 85 metric tons of CO2 annually, which is equivalent to taking 18 gas-powered passenger vehicles off the road each year. This effort will significantly help reduce transportation emissions and support the City’s commitment to sustainability.

At TPA, we proudly champion initiatives that improve and strengthen California communities. This latest achievement is another example of the City’s commitment to promote and protect a healthy and viable community.

Once again, congratulations, Guadalupe, and thank you to everyone involved in this success!
