[51 Pa.B. 4413]
[Saturday, August 7, 2021]The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) announces the continued availability of grants to Commonwealth residents under Pennsylvania's Alternative Fuel Vehicle (AFV) 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 AFV.
To qualify for the rebate, the alternative fuel vehicle must be registered in and be operated primarily within this Commonwealth. The rebate will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis in the order in which they are received.
AFV rebate applications must be submitted online through the Commonwealth's Electronic Single Application web site, eGrants, at www.esa.dced.state.pa.us. Rebate applications must be submitted no later than 6 months after the vehicle is purchased.
The Department has renewed the Program and is currently accepting applications.
• The Program will offer 2,000 rebates. The Program can be reassessed or changed at any time.
• Three rebate levels are offered for new, preowned and demonstration AFVs:
o A $1,000 rebate for all hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.
o A $750 rebate for all battery electric vehicles.
o A $500 rebate for all plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, natural gas vehicles, propane vehicles and electric motorcycles (does not include electric scooters).
• An additional $1,000 rebate is available for qualifying low-income Commonwealth residents. See Program guidelines for details and eligibility.
The Program guidelines and application instructions, as well as an up-to-date listing of rebate availability, can be viewed online at www.dep.pa.gov/AFVrebates. Interested applicants may contact the Department at (717) 783-8411 for more information.
