arbcombo -- CVRP Grant Solicitation for FY 2016-17 with Option for a new Grant Agreement for FY 2017-18 and FY 2018-19

Posted: 03 Oct 2016 16:05:59
The California Air Resources Board (ARB or the Board) is pleased
to announce its grant solicitation for an administrator to
implement the Clean Vehicle Rebate Project (CVRP) and Increased
Incentives for Public Fleets in Disadvantaged Communities (Public
Fleet Pilot Project) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2016-17. The
solicitation includes the option for new Grant Agreements for
each of the following two fiscal years (FY 2017-18 and FY
2018-19).  Contingent upon Board approval to implement the
modifications to the FY 2016-17 Funding Plan for the Low Carbon
Transportation Investments and Air Quality Improvement Program
(Funding Plan), the current funding available is $78 million for
CVRP and up to $3 million for the Public Fleet Pilot Project,
with a total of up to $81 million.  The inclusion of the Public
Fleet Pilot Project is specifically contingent upon the Board
allocating up to $3 million to the Public Fleet Pilot Project.

CVRP is intended to encourage and accelerate zero- and near-zero
emission, on-road light-duty vehicle deployment and technology
innovation.  This project currently provides rebates for
California purchasers and lessees of up to $6,500 for fuel cell
electric vehicles (FCEVs), up to $4,000 for battery-electric
vehicles (BEVs), up to $3,000 for plug-in hybrid electric
light-duty vehicles (PHEVs), and up to $900 for zero-emission
motorcycles (ZEMs) on a first-come, first-served basis.  These
rebate amounts have not been updated to reflect recently adopted
legislation and are subject to change.  In addition, the Public
Fleet Pilot Project provides increased incentives for public
fleets located in or serving disadvantaged communities.  Rebates
offered to public fleets located in or serving disadvantaged
communities are up to $15,000 for FCEVs, $10,000 for BEVs, and
$5,250 for PHEVs.  

This solicitation is open to federal, state or local government
entities or agencies, and California nonprofit organizations with
expertise implementing a grant program and general knowledge of
ARB’s clean vehicle programs.  Applications are due to ARB no
later than 5:00 p.m. (PST), November 4, 2016. 

ARB will hold two Applicant Teleconferences, at which time staff
will be available to answer questions potential applicants may

of the inclusion of the Public Fleet Pilot Project and address
any other final questions.
