A new report from PennEnvironment shows local and state governments in Pennsylvania could save up to $360 million over the next 10 years by switching retiring 26,000 light-duty fleet vehicles to electric models.
David Masur, the executive director at PennEnvironment, said electrifying those vehicles would have significant effects on the transportation sector’s contribution to climate change. “The big takeaway is there’s a real opportunity here with real financial values as well as value for our planet,” he said.
