The list below contains summaries of all Pennsylvania incentives and laws related to HEVs / PHEVs.
The Alternative Fuels Incentive Grant (AFIG) Program provides financial assistance programs; information on alternative fuels, AFVs, HEVs, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, and anti-idling technologies that use alternatives to diesel fuel for heavy-duty trucks; and advanced vehicle technology research, development, and demonstration. Projects that result in product commercialization and the expansion of Pennsylvania companies are favored in the selection process. As of October 2011, the annual AFIG Program application period is closed.
The AFIG Program also offers Alternative Fuel Vehicle Rebates to assist eligible residents with the incremental cost of the purchase of new AFVs, including electric vehicles (EVs), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), natural gas vehicles (NGVs), and propane vehicles. As of October 2011, rebates of $3,500 are available for qualified EVs and PHEVs, and rebates of $1,000 are available for NGVs and propane vehicles.(Reference Title 73 Pennsylvania Statutes, Chapter 18E, Section 1647.3)Point of Contact
