Availability of Rebates Through the Pennsylvania Hybrid Electric Vehicle Rebate Program
[36 Pa.B. 4071]
[Saturday, July 29, 2006]The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) announces the availability of rebates to residents of this Commonwealth under the Pennsylvania's Hybrid Electric Vehicle Rebate Program. The program, administered by the Department through the Alternative Fuels Incentive Grant Program (AFIG), provides $500 rebates to residents of this Commonwealth to assist individuals with the incremental costs of purchasing a new hybrid electric vehicle.
To qualify for the $500 rebate, the hybrid electric vehicle must be registered in this Commonwealth and be operated primarily within this Commonwealth. The rebate will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis as long as funds are available. Rebate request forms and required documentation must be submitted to the Department no later than 6 months after the vehicle is purchased.
Rebates will be provided only for the purchase of the cleanest and most fuel-efficient hybrid vehicles. These ''full hybrid'' vehicles use the hybrid technology to significantly increase fuel economy while significantly reducing emissions. ''Mild hybrids'' that use the hybrid technology to increase a vehicle's power and performance rather than significantly reducing emissions will not qualify for the rebates.
Rebate forms, along with additional information about the program, may be obtained on the Department's website at www.depweb.state.pa.us (DEP Keywords: Alternative Fuels) or by contacting Cleo Arp, Grant Officer, Bureau of Energy, Innovations, and Technology Deployment at (717) 772-8912 or carp@state.pa.us.
