Ava Community Energy, formerly East Bay Community Energy, partnered with the Alameda County Transportation Commission, the county transit funder, to launch a $10 million fund in July to offer significant rebates to adult customers for the purchase of new electric bikes. The program provides $1,000 toward the cost of a standard e-bike or $1,500 toward the cost of a cargo or adaptive e-bike for people who qualify as low-income, with $400 and $900 rebates, respectively, for other county residents.
