New California incentives will promote e-bikes and reduce air pollution
Californians jump at the chance to receive e-bike incentives of up to $2,000

On the evening of December 18, 2024, the California E-Bike Incentive Project started accepting applications. As of the next morning the application period was already closed, suggesting high demand for cleaner, healthier transportation options in California. While the incentive program is no longer accepting applications, additional application windows will be announced in the coming days.
Electric bikes, or e-bikes, are bicycles with motors that assist the rider’s pedaling, making it easier and quicker to bike to work, school, and other destinations around town. E-bikes are approximately 10 times more efficient than electric vehicles, and are great for short to medium sized trips that you might otherwise use a car for. Gasoline-powered cars and trucks emit deadly pollution that dirties our air and contributes to global warming, but e-bikes are a quickly emerging alternative that can get Californians from point A to point B cleaner and healthier.
Thanks to Governor Newsom and state legislators who funded the program in the state budget, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) launched these vouchers that give discounts at the point of buying an e-bike. Vouchers range from $1,750 to $2,000 depending on the applicant’s income level, and can help cover an eligible e-bike, accessories, assembly and delivery fees, and sales tax.

California must continue to clean up its air pollution by embracing clean transportation options like electric vehicles, zero emission trucks, and e-bikes.
