The Voucher Incentive Program (VIP) concept was initially developed in California and is being promoted, and has been implemented, in other states as a cost-effective and direct method for reducing the cost of clean trucks and buses for fleet operators. 7357518 Working with the Federal Transit Administration and the California Energy Commission, CALSTART managed and participated in a number of projects to develop and demonstrate advanced medium and heavy-duty vehicle technologies in California and other states. These efforts are playing an important role in making zero, and near zero emission, lower carbon trucks and buses commercially viable. Among others, programs were launched to deploy both battery electric and fuel cell bus technology in areas from California to Ohio. CALSTART also completed a study identifying zero emission pathways for trucks serving major ports and heavily travelled regions and provided third party assessment and validation of new technologies and vehicles. Finally, CALSTART is part of the U.S. - China Race to Zero Emissions (R2ZE) project to deploy Zero Emission Buses (ZEBs). 1144695 CALSTART provides a wide range of services, networking and strategic partnering services to its 160+ member companies. The members benefited from CALSTART analyses and information regarding new opportunities and trends. The organization held a number of successful conferences and events that brought leading industry officials and policymakers together to include the 3rd annual Clean, Low-Carbon Fuels Summit in Sacramento and the High-Efficiency Truck Users Forum (HTUF) Conference in Michigan. 1006175 20573161 true true false true false false false false false false true false false false true true true false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false true 54 0 true 29 true true true false false false false false false false false false X 14 13 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false CA X X SCOTT CARRANO CFO 6267445600 48 SOUTH CHESTER AVENUE PASADENA CA 91106 Michael Britt Director 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Jack Broadbent Director 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Caroline Choi Director 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Donna DeMartino Director 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Karen Hamberg Director 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Brian Olson Director 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Puon Penn Director 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Jeffrey Reed Director 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Pasquale Romano Director 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Dipender Saluja Director 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Chris Stoddart Director 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 George Survant Director 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Stephen Trichka Director 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 John Boesel President and Chief Executive 40.0 0.0 X 290458 0 47143 Yesewlik Ayalew Chief Financial Offer 40.0 0.0 X 206060 0 42290 William Van Amburg Sr. Vice President 40.0 0.0 X 177320 0 40847 Fred Silver Vice President 40.0 0.0 X 163385 0 37781 Lawrence Wnuk Sr. Program Manager 40.0 0.0 X 130153 0 40768 Thomas Brotherton Regional Director 40.0 0.0 X 115409 0 38151 Scott Carrano Controller 40.0 0.0 X 115057 0 20500 Michael Ippoliti Sr. Program Manager 40.0 0.0 X 106110 0 18541 Susan Romeo Dir.
