The state of New York hasn't set up any electric truck chargers, even with the "Advanced Clean Truck" rule on the horizon.

The situation: The rule, kicking in January 2025, requires a chunk of new commercial vehicles in New York to be zero-emission.

• Trucking groups feel left out to dry without enough support to make the switch.
• The state has invested $450 million in service plazas, but not one has heavy-duty charging stations, said Utica Mack Representative Tom Heiland.

What they're saying: Kendra Hems of the Trucking Association of New York pointed out the state's lack of charging infrastructure, which makes supporting electric trucks tough.

The New York Department of Environmental Conservation says the "Advanced Clean Trucks" rule is about making transportation cleaner and greener. But they are also considering new flexibilities to allow manufacturers more time to comply.

Despite discussions on regulations, the absence of any heavy-duty chargers so far might slow the rule's smooth roll-out according to Syracuse.com.

The rule is set for January 2025, with no electric truck chargers installed yet in New York.
