WHEAT RIDGE ~ Wheat Ridge, Colorado - On August 24, 2026, eligible Coloradans will have the opportunity to apply for the relaunched E-bike Rebates program. This initiative, announced by Governor Polis and the Colorado Energy Office (CEO), aims to provide point-of-sale rebates for qualifying e-bike purchases to more than 2,800 eligible Coloradans over the next year.

The initial E-Bike Rebate program was open from Summer 2023 until Spring 2025 and was a huge success, with nearly 8,000 Coloradans taking advantage of the rebates and saving over $9.75 million on e-bike purchases. With a total of $3 million in funding from the Community Access Enterprise for the current fiscal year, CEO plans to continue providing rebates to support e-bike purchases.

Governor Polis expressed his excitement about the relaunch of the program, stating that e-bikes are not only fun and convenient but also help reduce traffic congestion and contribute to Colorado's clean air and climate goals. He believes that e-bikes are the future and hopes that more Coloradans will take advantage of these money-saving rebates.

During the initial run of this initiative, more than 34,000 Coloradans applied for rebates. Of those who received a rebate, 89% said they would not have purchased an e-bike without it. By replacing an average of 2.85 private vehicle trips per week with e-bike rides, rebate recipients have avoided estimated annual emissions equivalent to 8.85 million miles driven in a traditional gas-powered car.

CEO Executive Director Will Toor also expressed his commitment to reducing pollution from the transportation sector through initiatives like this one. He stated that their initial e-bike rebate program was a great success and had a real impact on people's lives. With demand for e-bikes continuing to soar, CEO is excited to bring back this popular program with ongoing funding so that more Coloradans can enjoy the many benefits e-bikes offer.

To be eligible for the rebates, individuals must live in Colorado and have a household income at or below 80% of the area median income in their county. The standard rebate will be worth $1,000, with additional savings available for e-cargo bike and adaptive e-bike purchases.

Registration for the rebates will open on a quarterly basis over the next year. Each registration round will be open for one week, and Coloradans can register at any time during that period. The first round of registration will open on August 24, 2026 at 11:00 AM MT and close on August 31, 2026 at 12:00 PM MT. Interested individuals can find a link to the registration portal on the E-Bike Rebate webpage once registration opens.

During the initial registration period, individuals only need to submit their name and contact information. After the registration period closes, CEO will randomly select registrants to receive rebates and notify them via email. Selected registrants will then have one week to submit proof of income and address to confirm their eligibility. More information about acceptable documentation can be found on the E-Bike Rebate webpage.

To redeem the rebate, recipients must purchase a qualifying e-bike in-person or over the phone from a participating retailer. CEO is currently registering retailers with the program, and this list will continue to grow as outreach efforts continue. Details about qualifying e-bikes are also available on the webpage.

Recipients of the Colorado E-Bike Rebate may also combine it with the Colorado E-Bike Tax Credit discount if they purchase from a retailer participating in both programs. However, individuals living in cities or counties with existing e-bike rebate programs may still apply for this statewide rebate. To ensure that as many Coloradans as possible can access incentives to make e-bikes more affordable, recipients may not combine the state rebate with local incentives on the same e-bike purchase.

In conclusion, the relaunch of the E-bike Rebates program in Colorado is a great opportunity for eligible individuals to save money on e-bike purchases and contribute to reducing pollution from the transportation sector. With ongoing funding and support from CEO, it is expected that this program will continue to have a positive impact on people's lives and the environment.
