Celebrate Bike Month with an Austin Energy E-Ride Rebate

May 17, 2024

Austin Energy encourages customers to consider an electric bike, an eco-friendly transportation option made more accessible through the utility’s rebate program. E-Bikes, or E-Rides, are an excellent alternative to vehicles, offering a convenient way to travel short to medium distances while reducing one's carbon footprint.

Austin Energy offers eligible individual customers rebates to purchase a qualifying E-Bike, scooter, moped or any other electric two or three-wheel vehicle. In 2023, rebates increased up to $600 per individual E-Ride vehicle purchase for applications submitted on or after January 1, 2023, as long as the purchase was completed within the last 60 days. Since 2007, Austin Energy has provided more than 4,000 E-bike rebates.

To qualify for the rebate, participants must be an Austin Energy customer, purchase an eligible E-Ride, and submit a rebate application. Rebate amounts will vary. Funding is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Starting in 2023, Customer Assistance Program (CAP) customers are newly eligible for a rebate of up to $1,300 per individual E-Ride vehicle purchase for applications submitted on or after January 1, 2023, as long as the purchase was completed within the last 60 days.

Austin Energy also offers eligible businesses and organizations rebates for E-Ride vehicle fleets numbering 5 to 25 vehicles. In 2023, rebates increased up to $800 per E-Ride vehicle fleet purchase for applications submitted on or after January 1, 2023, as long as the purchase was completed within the last 60 days.
