The list below contains summaries of all Massachusetts incentives and laws related to HEVs / PHEVs.
The Green Communities Division of the Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources (DOER) has funding available to local governments to fund the installation of publically available EVSE. All Massachusetts cities and towns are eligible and encouraged to apply; preference will be given to the 74 designated Green Communities and communities predicted to have the largest volume of potential plug-in electric vehicles. DOER will award grants based on funding availability; as of December 2011, funding is not available. For more information, refer to the Massachusetts Energy and Environmental Affairs website.
When purchasing new motor vehicles, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts must purchase HEVs or AFVs to the maximum extent feasible and consistent with the ability of such vehicles to perform their intended functions. HEVs and AFVs must be acquired at a rate of at least 5% annually for all new motor vehicle purchases so that not less than 50% of the motor vehicles the Commonwealth owns and operates will be HEVs or AFVs by 2018. (Reference Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 7, Section 9A)
