Stream 2: An Overview
Stream 2 of the Green Freight Program focuses on supporting the adoption of alternative fuel vehicles, helping fleets reduce their environmental impact while improving their long-term sustainability. This stream is an excellent opportunity for businesses looking to invest in cleaner transportation options, as it provides substantial financial incentives.
Key Highlights of Stream 2:
