REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) - DEVELOPMENT OF ALTERNATIVE TRUCK FUELING INFRASTRUCTURE NEAR THE I-80/SR 65 INTERCHANGE IN PLACER COUNTY, CALIFORNIA
The Placer County Transportation Planning Agency (PCTPA) is issuing a Request for Information (RFI) to solicit feedback and recommendations for the planning, coordination, and development of alternative truck fueling infrastructure along the Interstate 80 (I-80) corridor in Placer County, California, which has been designated as an Alternative Fuel Corridor.
PCTPA commissioned Jacobs Engineering to conduct a feasibility study to explore the potential of installing battery-electric truck charging infrastructure and hydrogen refueling infrastructure near the I-80/State Route (SR) 65 interchange, in response to an increasing demand for sustainable and efficient trucking solutions in our region. This initiative is supported by various federal and state funding programs, including the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Formula Program and the Charging and Fueling Infrastructure grant program administered by the Federal Highway Administration, and the California Transportation Commission's Trade Corridor Enhancement Program (TCEP).
PCTPA is still in the information collection and development phase of the proposed project. As such, the purpose of this RFI is to collect inputs from potential market interests across varying relevant sectors to obtain information on how PCTPA can best support the deployment of alternative truck fueling infrastructure in line with our goal of providing safe, efficient, and high-quality transportation infrastructure for the Placer County region. Although our study focused on the vicinity of the I-80/SR65 Interchange, we are seeking responses for the entire I-80 corridor within Placer County, California.
The Request for Information (RFI) and Questionnaire and the Feasibility Study can be downloaded at the links below. Please be sure this RFI gets to the right staff in your organization or to others who may be interested in partnering in the future development of an Alternative Truck Fueling Facility in Placer County, California.
Please email the completed RFI and Questionnaire by April 15, 2024 at 5:00pm to David Melko at dmelko@pctpa.net. Feel free to contact David at 530.823.4090 if you have any questions.
