CleanBC offers consumer rebates for clean transportation to help create a more sustainable future for all British Columbians. B.C. is prioritizing Canadian-made products in rebate programs and phasing out U.S.-made goods where possible.

As of March 12, 2025, Tesla products (e.g., electric vehicles, chargers, etc.) are not eligible for any CleanBC rebates. If you purchased or have received pre-approval for your Tesla product before March 12, 2025, it can still qualify for rebates and will be processed as normal.

The CleanBC Go Electric Fleet Charging Program is a sub-program of the CleanBC Go Electric Program and is intended to support Provincial action on climate change and reduce transportation greenhouse gas emissions.

Funded by the Ministry of Energy and Climate Solutions (ECS) and administered by Fraser Basin Council Society (FBC), the program supports fleets in British Columbia in their efforts toward deploying zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) infrastructure by offering technical and financial support through:
