The Zero-Emission Technology Inventory (ZETI) Data Explorer allows users to filter, explore, compare, contrast, and visualize data about zero-emission truck and bus models. It enables users to view and compare various data points such as:
model availability by region or manufacturer,
vehicle availability per manufacturer,
range per vehicle type,
battery capacity, and;
market trends.
The data comes from Drive to Zero’s ZETI database, which seeks to establish a shared knowledgebase of all currently available zero-emission medium- and heavy-duty vehicles; to date, there are more than 800 distinct models included.
Calstart’s Drive to Zero program updates ZETI Data Explorer regularly.
