Electric Vehicles Grant
PALM SPRINGS – The Federal Aviation Administration awarded Palm Springs International Airport a grant of $503,212 aimed at substituting gas-powered airport vehicles with electric ones, the airport announced Monday.
This was PSP’s first Zero Emissions Vehicle grant application to the FAA, airport officials said.
“Receiving this grant is a significant milestone for Palm Springs International Airport and underscores our dedication to sustainability,” said Harry Barrett Jr., PSP executive director of aviation. “Replacing these vehicles with electric models will not only reduce emissions but also set a precedent for future green initiatives at the airport.”
The grant is a component of a $2.2 billion FAA initiative through the Airport Improvement Program, in addition to supplemental discretionary grants, officials said.
