The Center for Sustainable Energy (CSE) is the statewide administrator for the Massachusetts Offers Rebates for Electric Vehicles (MOR-EV) program that aims to provide air pollution emission reductions for the commonwealth by increasing the use of zero-emission electric vehicles.
The program promotes greater adoption and use of EVs, including battery-only, plug-in hybrid and fuel cell electric vehicles through outreach and education with a variety of partners including consumers and dealers.
Funded by the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs' Department of Energy Resources, the program provides rebates up to $6,000 for the purchase or lease of new and used light-duty electric vehicles and motorcycles.

And the data and feedback CSE provides helps us continuously improve our MOR-EV program so that we spend only what we need to reach our goals,” Daniel Gatti, Director of Clean Transportation Policy, Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs
