Tax Credits and Purchase Incentives |

There are many State and Federal subsidies available throughout the country. These subsidies, grants or tax credits can partially or fully offset the cost of your new hybrid system. State subsidies vary with every state and the availability of Federal subsidies varies within each state.
To help you in your search for industry information or, more importantly, opportunities for assistance in purchasing hybrid additions to your current fleets, we offer the following links:
