Join us to hear an engaging presentation from the San Francisco Bay’s Water Emergency Transportation Authority (WETA). WETA provides an important means of transportation in the Bay Area and provides emergency services when support is required. To comply with new California Air Resources Board (CARB) regulations and continue to be a leader in the sector, WETA developed a Blueprint to transition their fleet of ferries to zero-emission vessels. The Blueprint focuses on the vessel-side analyses and terminal infrastructure requirements for electrifying the WETA fleet. This presentation will provide a review key findings with an overview of the proposed technology and transition phasing.

​Food and beverage buffet will be provided!

Where: Callippe Golf Club House (8500 Clubhouse Dr, Pleasanton, CA 94566)
When: October 17, 2024 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM
