EV Equity Programs
EV Equity Program
The EV Equity Program is helping residents across the Valley understand the environmental and economic benefits of driving an Electric Vehicle and access available EV purchase incentives. The Program provides one-on-one assistance, helping individuals apply for up to $12,000 in state clean vehicle grants available to lower-income consumers. The Program also educates residents about the different types of electric vehicles, charging, range, maintenance, cost to operate and other important issues. The Program works closely with affiliated partners who can help with credit repair and low-interest loan approval. The Program also works closely with the Clean Vehicle Empowerment Collaborative (see below) to conduct outreach in disadvantaged communities.

Clean Transportation Outreach
the Clean Vehicle Empowerment Collaborative is a coalition of community-based organizations conducting coordinated EV outreach in lower-income and disadvantaged communities. Outreach includes coordinated marketing, education and engagement with 1) lower-income residents about electric vehicles and 2) local governments and businesses about electric vehicle charging infrastructure incentives (CALeVIP), with the goal of bringing both to communities across the San Joaquin Valley.
