Port of San Diego selects developer for zero-emission truck stop in National City

The Port of San Diego has selected a developer to build and operate a zero-emission truck stop in National City, a project expected to help the district transition to zero-emission technology in the coming years. Last week, commissioners approved entering into an exclusive negotiating agreement with Skychargers LLC for the truck stop on a 5-acre parcel at 19th Street and Tidelands Avenue.

Additionally, Skycharger plans to invest $150,000 toward a community benefit program that would include contributions to National City’s free ride-share service and local jobs. The company was among six that submitted proposals. Last year, Skycharger and Gage Zero LLC were selected as the finalists. Gage Zero LLC proposed developing 20 dual-port electric vehicle supply equipment that could charge 40 trucks at the same time on a 3-acre parcel at the same intersection.
