PCE Electric Vehicle Rebates In San Mateo County

Press release from the City of Millbrae:

November 13, 2020

Now is a great time to buy electric! Peninsula Clean Energy (PCE) is offering rebates for first-time electric vehicle (EV) buyers in San Mateo County to purchase a new electric car. PCE rebate is $1,000 towards the cost of a new all-battery EV or $700 towards a new plug-in hybrid. Now through December 31, 2020. Learn more at PenCleanEnergy.com/NewEV.

Combined with a $7,500 tax credit from the IRS, up to $2,000 from the state, and $800 from PG&E, buyers can save up to $11,300 off the price of a new EV. PCE is also offering up to $4,000 off a used electric vehicle for income-qualified drivers. PenCleanEnergy.com/DriveForwardElectric

Why make the switch? Electric vehicles generally cost about half as much to run, have lower maintenance costs, and emit 25x less emissions than gasoline-powered cars!

Are you still not sure? Peninsula Clean Energy is also providing residents the opportunity to experience driving an EV with a $200 rebate toward the rental of an EV and assistance in setting up at-home or at-dealership test drives. PenCleanEnergy.com/EVTestDrive

PCE has also launched their EV Ready Program, which offers $24 million in project incentives for workplaces, multi-family dwellings, and other public locations to install EV charging ports in San Mateo County. Learn more at PenCleanEnergy.com/EV-Ready/.
