GFP Stream 2: Fleet modernization

Call for proposals

For this Call for Proposals, Stream 2 of the Green Freight Program will be providing cost-shared, non-repayable contributions for eligible projects through Contribution Agreements towards the following three project and funding activity types:

• Repowering existing vehicles;
• Purchase of low-carbon alternative fuel vehicles; and
• Implementation of logistical best practices. (NEW!)

The objective of Stream 2 of the Green Freight Program is to encourage Canadian freight companies to make data-driven investment decisions through the implementation of energy-efficient improvements for their fleets. This program aims to support industry in identifying pathways for reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from on-road freight vehicles by adopting, purchasing and implementing new technologies and logistical best practices across Canadian freight fleets.

Eligible applicants are welcome to submit one application containing multiple funding activities (i.e. one application could include both replace activities and logistical best practice activities). However, each application can only request up to $5 million dollars of NRCan funding.

Alternatively, one organization could submit multiple applications, each containing a unique set of activities, each requesting up to $5million dollars of NRCan funding.
