Mi-Jack + Terberg Taylor Support C.O.R.E. Initiative

Transforming Heavy-Duty Equipment with Zero Emissions Technology

In the pursuit of cleaner air and a sustainable future, California is taking bold steps to incentivize the adoption of zero-emission off-road equipment. The Clean Off-Road Equipment Voucher Incentive Project (CORE), launched by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) in partnership with the nonprofit CALSTART, is a multimillion-dollar incentive project intended to encourage the purchase or lease of commercial heavy-duty equipment with a streamlined voucher that helps offset the higher cost of zero-emission technology.

Mi-Jack Products, as a prominent distributor of Taylor Machine Works’ and Terberg Taylor Americas’ material handling equipment, with their innovative zero-emission electric heavy-duty forklifts, container handlers, and terminal tractors, is leading the charge on this initiative to provide a cleaner solution for marine and container terminals, railways, and distribution centers across the country by providing equipment that is eligible to receive these discounts.

A Partnership for Innovative Solutions

Taylor Machine Works and Terberg Taylor Americas, both leaders in the design and manufacturing of zero-emissions equipment, have long collaborated with Mi-Jack Products to distribute material handlers nationwide. With the recent innovation of battery electric vehicle heavy-duty equipment, this partnership not only expands the availability of zero-emission material handling solutions but also contributes to California’s vision of a cleaner, sustainable future. As California continues to lead the charge in zero-emission transportation, initiatives like CORE and companies like Mi-Jack Products are instrumental in driving the transition to a greener, more sustainable heavy-duty equipment industry.

Benefits of Zero-Emission Equipment

The shift towards zero-emission heavy-duty equipment, such as the ZLC-994, ZLC-995, ZLC-996 loaded container handlers, the ZH-360L, ZH-350L, and the Z-360L electric forklifts, and the YT-203 EV Yard/Terminal Tractors comes with several advantages. Unlike traditional diesel-driven powertrains that require frequent maintenance, electric heavy-duty equipment boasts maintenance-free electric traction and pump motors. The robust nickel-manganese-cobalt battery technology guarantees ample charges for extended shifts, requiring minimal time for recharging.

Terberg Taylor Americas’ electric yard and terminal tractors can be used with combined battery pack combinations up to 222 kWh and selected to what best suits operations. Enhanced by a Thermal Management System, the battery technology enables operation across diverse climates, both extreme cold or extreme heat. The YT203-EV utilizes DC chargers compatible with standard charging stations, featuring a universal charging connector compliant with the automotive standard.
