Background: AQIP is a voluntary mobile source incentive program
administered by ARB. ARB focuses AQIP investments on technology
advancing projects that support California's long-term air
quality and climate change goals in addition to providing
immediate emission benefits. Each year, the Board approves the
AQIP Funding Plan, which serves as the blueprint for expending
AQIP funds. The Governor's proposed FY 2015-16 Budget includes a
$23 million allocation for AQIP projects.
Cap-and-Trade auction proceeds provide an additional funding
source for ARB's advanced technology clean transportation
incentive programs, expanding the types of projects ARB has
funded through AQIP. The FY 2014-15 State budget appropriated
$200 million to ARB for Low Carbon Transportation projects to
reduce greenhouse gas emissions with an emphasis on low carbon
freight and passenger transportation investments that benefit
disadvantaged communities. These investments are being
implemented through the administrative framework established by
AQIP. The Governor's proposed FY 2015-16 Budget includes a $200
million allocation for ARB for Low Carbon Transportation to
continue ARB's investments from the FY 2014-15 funding cycle.
