Electric Vehicles
Rebate
Description:
The Arctic Energy Alliance (AEA) provides rebates to reduce the cost of purchasing and using several types of electric vehicles (EVs) in the Northwest Territories (NWT), including passenger EVs, e-bikes and on-the-land EVs. Switching to an electric vehicle can help consumers reduce the amount of greenhouse gas emissions released to the atmosphere from vehicles that use fossil fuels.
