Effective June 1, 2023, BC residents were able to apply for a rebate for a new electric bike. Basing the rebate amount on income made e-bikes a clean transportation choice more affordable for everyone. The 2023 e-bike rebate program is fully subscribed. Waitlist applicants will be notified if/when a rebate becomes available.
This program supports the Province’s CleanBC goals by encouraging a mode shift towards active transportation and public transit. E-bikes greatly reduce greenhouse gas emissions and offer a convenient alternative to replacing motor vehicle trips. E-bikes provide greater speed, convenience, and accessibility than non-assisted pedal bicycles.
