The city of Denver recently offered its final round of e-bike rebates for the year, KUSA reported.
At the end of October, the city opened applications for a new round of vouchers for up to $450 off a regular e-bike or up to $950 off an adaptive e-bike. To qualify, residents needed to make less than $91,280 for one person or less than $140,100 for four people. The vouchers can be combined with tax rebates to cover up to 80% of the purchase price of an e-bike before tax. So far, over 10,000 vouchers have been claimed through this program in previous rounds.
An e-bike has tons of benefits, especially for riders who use it to commute to work, since you’ll be saving on gas every single day. It’s also healthier for you than driving, allowing you to exercise during at least part of the ride. Since it doesn’t burn fuel, it doesn’t directly produce air pollution, so it’s better for the air quality in your neighborhood, too.
To find an e-bike that fits your specific needs, check out Upway. This online seller offers an incredible variety of different brands and models, many of which are sold at up to 60% off the retail price. If you want to sell a bike instead of buying one, Upway also buys used e-bikes.
To get the most out of your e-bike and save even more, you can charge it using a home solar setup. TCD’s Solar Explorer is designed to help homeowners understand the available options for installing solar so they can save money when making the switch.
With help from TCD’s partners, you can receive concierge-level service that simplifies the process of going solar and helps you save up to $10,000 on the price of installing solar panels on your home. If a solar purchase isn’t right for your budget, it can also help you find $0-down subscription options.
