Oregon will temporarily suspend rebates for buying or leasing an electric vehicle starting in May.
because too many people are applying and the program is running out of money, The Oregonian/OregonLive reported Thursday.
The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality announced Wednesday the suspension of the Clean Vehicle Rebate Program that has disbursed more than $71 million over five years to help people buy or lease roughly 25,000 of those vehicles. A fifth of the rebates went to low- and moderate-income households, state data shows.
“Even though we’re announcing a temporary suspension, it really shows the program is a victim of our own success,” Rachel Sakata, senior air quality planner with theal quality department. “We’re one of the top states in the nation in terms of the percentage of EV sales.”
