Solicitation Profile
A total of $750,000 will be distributed during this grant cycle to municipalities for rebates on the cost of purchasing or leasing eligible clean vehicles. Vehicles must have been purchased or leased (with a lease term of no less than 36 months) on or after April 1, 2016 at a dealer located within NYS, and placed into municipal service. Rebates of up to $5,000 per vehicle are available, depending on the electric range of the vehicle. No more than 50% of the total funding available in this grant funding category will be awarded to any one municipality.

An eligible clean vehicle is propelled at least in part by an electric motor drawing electricity from a battery (including plug-in hybrid electric vehicles) with at least four kWh capacity and which can be recharged from an external source of electricity or from a hydrogen fuel cell.
