BYD Offers Information Assistance with RAISE Grants
Los Angeles, CA, May 22, 2021 --(PR.com)-- The U.S. Secretary of Transportation recently announced that $1 billion will be available through the competitive Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) program. BYD stands ready to assist with application information.
RAISE, formerly known as BUILD and TIGER, now includes funding opportunities for projects addressing climate change, including energy storage solutions, electric buses and trucks, and the planning and construction of electric vehicle charging stations.
BYD can assist in the application process by providing agencies with the cost of battery electric buses and trucks, chargers, charging infrastructure, energy storage solutions, and grid solutions.
With total solutions for green energy generation and storage, BYD is the USA’s industry leader in battery electric buses and trucks with over 600 vehicles at work across America. BYD’s electric buses meet and exceed Buy America standards.
Projects for RAISE funding will be evaluated based on merit criteria that includes safety, environmental sustainability, quality of life, economic competitiveness, state of good repair, innovation, and partnership. Within these criteria, the Department will prioritize projects that can demonstrate improvements to racial equity, reduce impacts of climate change and create good-paying jobs.
For information on BYD products and solutions, contact Maria Mendoza, Director of Bids and Grants, at maria.mendoza1@byd.com, or Jason Yan, Director of Sales Operations, at Jason.yan@byd.com.
Instructions for submitting RAISE applications can be found at www.transportation.gov/RAISEgrants along with specific instructions for the forms and attachments required for submission. Webinars about the grant program can be found at www.transportation.gov/RAISEgrants/outreach.
