⚡️ On Friday, we celebrated the City’s 100th electric vehicle going into service. The Minneapolis Public Works Department is driving an ambitious Green Fleets policy geared toward creating a zero-emission fleet.

The City’s commitment to converting its fleet to all electric vehicles will continue to ramp up in the second half of 2024. While 100 electric vehicles are now operating on city streets, 41 additional vehicles have been delivered and are being outfitted for service with 11 more on order. In addition, 49 fleet charging stations have been installed across city operations with another 43 scheduled to be installed this year.

This initiative is just one part of the Climate Equity Plan, which is the City’s plan to reach its accelerated, equitable, and aggressive climate goals over the next ten years.
