Help your employees lead the way to cleaner transportation

Electric Drive 805 works with local businesses and their employees to increase access to cleaner, more efficient electric vehicles. Transportation is the largest source of air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions for many businesses – especially if they consider employee commutes.

We help local businesses that want to play an active role in California’s transition to cleaner electric vehicles. If you’re ready to lead the charge to a cleaner transportation future, we can provide support to install workplace charging, increase employee awareness of electric vehicle benefits, and find the best ways to incorporate more electric vehicles into fleets.

Fleet Incentives

Fleet incentives are designed to help businesses and organizations transition their vehicle fleets to electric vehicles (EVs). These incentives may include rebates, tax credits, and grants that reduce the upfront costs of purchasing and maintaining electric EVs.

In addition, charging incentives offer significant financial assistance for businesses and organizations to help offset the costs of building essential charging infrastructure, facilitating a smoother transition to electric fleets.

By taking advantage of these programs, your company can lower operational expenses, reduce its carbon footprint, and lead in sustainability. Fleet incentives are a powerful tool for businesses ready to make the switch to cleaner transportation, enhancing both environmental impact and financial efficiency.

Fleet Charging Incentives

Fleet charging incentives offer significant financial assistance for businesses and organizations to install electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure. Programs such as Energiize provide up to $750,000 per project for commercial fleet users and station owners, and up to $4 million for hydrogen fueling infrastructure. The Energiize Public Charging Funding Lane supports up to $500,000 per project, with potential for more if equity criteria are met. Additionally, the Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit offers tax benefits for infrastructure used to store or dispense clean fuels or recharge EVs. These incentives help offset the costs of building essential charging infrastructure, facilitating a smoother transition to electric fleets.
