SuperTruck 3 Pushes for Electrification of Freight Trucks Volvo Trucks The Department of Energy intends to provide up to $100 million in funding to push for the electrification of freight trucks of all sizes as part of its new SuperTruck 3 program. A parallel, separately funded, effort will be aimed at reducing emissions and increasing efficiencies for on- and off-road vehicles, among other goals. Transportation accounts for approximately 30% of total U.S. energy needs and generates the largest share of the country’s greenhouse gas emissions, according to DOE. We're throwing greenhouse gases under the bus. At @ENERGY, we’re committing $162 million to decarbonize vehicles of all different sizes to make them cleaner and greener to get from place to place.
