Rising fuel costs, emissions targets, and customer expectations are pushing many B.C. businesses to rethink how they move people and goods. The CleanBC Go Electric Programs create a broad opportunity for organizations that want to transition toward zero-emission transportation, whether that means purchasing electric vehicles, installing charging infrastructure, or piloting new clean transportation technologies. Led by the Government of British Columbia, this suite of incentives is designed to make electric options more affordable and practical across a wide range of commercial and public-sector uses.
Rather than a single grant, CleanBC Go Electric includes multiple streams that support different needs. Businesses, non-profits, local governments, and Indigenous organizations can access non-repayable rebates for zero-emission commercial vehicles such as medium- and heavy-duty trucks, buses, cargo e-bikes, and specialized fleet vehicles, as well as funding to install EV charging stations at workplaces or for public use. Fleet-focused programs help organizations plan and deploy charging infrastructure, while pilot and innovation initiatives support emerging technologies in areas like marine, off-road, and industrial transportation. In many cases, provincial incentives can be combined with federal programs to further reduce upfront costs.
With ongoing intake and funding that varies by project type, CleanBC Go Electric can support both early adopters and businesses scaling up their electric fleets. Exploring the specific streams and requirements can help determine which options best align with your operational and sustainability goals.
