[43 Pa.B. 584]
[Saturday, January 26, 2013]

 The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) announces the continued availability of rebates to Commonwealth residents under the Pennsylvania Hybrid Electric Vehicle Rebate Program (Program). The Program, administered by the Department through the Alternative Fuels Incentive Grant Program, provides rebates to Commonwealth residents to assist individuals with the incremental costs of purchasing an alternative fuel vehicle.

 To qualify for the rebate, the alternative fuel vehicle must be registered in Pennsylvania and be operated primarily within this Commonwealth. The rebates will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis in the order in which they are received. Rebate request forms and required documentation must be submitted to the Department no later than 6 months after the vehicle is purchased.

 The following rebates are offered:

 • $3,500 rebate for a plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) (battery system capacity equal or greater than 10 kWh) and battery electric vehicle (EV) (battery system capacity equal or greater than 10 kWh) (the first 500 qualified applicants only).

 • $1,000 rebate for a PHEV or EV (battery system capacity less than 10 kWh).

 • $1,000 rebate for a natural gas fueled vehicle OEM/certified retrofit.

 • $1,000 rebate for a propane fueled vehicles.

 • $1,000 rebate for a hydrogen or fuel cell vehicles, or both.

 • $500 rebate for electric motorcycles or scooters.

 There are only a limited number of rebates left at $3,500. Upon payment of the first 500 rebates at $3,500, the rebate amount for PHEVs and EVs (battery system capacity equal or greater than 10 kWh) will be reduced to $3,000 for the next 500 qualified applicants or until June 30, 2013, whichever occurs first. The rebate amount offered in the future will be reassessed at that time.

 The Department encourages interested applicants to visit the web site for rebate forms and an up-to-date listing of rebate availability at www.dep.state.pa.us, keyword: Alternative Fuel Vehicle Rebates. The remaining rebates available for PHEVs or EVs (battery system capacity equal or greater than 10 kWh) will be updated weekly.
