Envirotech Vehicles Applauds Government Order to Achieve Net-Zero Emissions by 2050

CORONA, CA / ACCESSWIRE / December 13, 2021 / Envirotech Vehicles, Inc. (OTCQX:EVTV), a provider of new zero-emission, purpose-built electric vehicles (the "Company"), commented today on the new executive order signed by President Joe Biden that will make the United States government a net-zero contributor to the climate crisis.

Under the order, signed by President Biden on Wednesday, December 8, the government will minimize planet-heating emissions from operations and transition to an all-electric fleet of cars and trucks, cutting its emissions by 65% by the end of this decade before reaching carbon neutrality in 2050.

Phillip Oldridge, CEO of Envirotech Vehicles, commented, "This executive order is yet another step in the right direction as the U.S. government continues to pass legislation and set goals to become a net-zero contributor to the climate crisis. Like the American Jobs Plan announced in March, the order aims to slash emissions from all government operations to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. Specifically, the order will target the transition of the government's current fleet of 600,000 cars and trucks to electric vehicles, with all vehicles acquired from 2035 on being zero-emission vehicles. We expect this to create a massive market opportunity for us in the United States as a U.S.-based provider of electric trucks and vans."

"Government initiatives at the state and federal levels continue to advocate for the transition to zero-emissions, and we believe that legislation like this will drive heightened consumer interest in EV's as well, furthering our market opportunity as a provider of best-in-class electric trucks and vans. This is an incredibly exciting time to be in the EV industry and we look forward to the many opportunities ahead," Mr. Oldridge concluded.
