Southern California Edison (SCE) chose the Center for Sustainable Energy to administer its Clean Fuel Reward Program, which provided its customers who drive all-electric or plug-in hybrid vehicles a payment of $1,000 through the state’s Low Carbon Fuel Standard Program. The SCE program, which ended in 2020, was designed to help combat climate change by encouraging the use of electric vehicles.
The Center for Sustainable Energy now administers SCE's Pre-Owned Electric Vehicle Rebate Program. Learn more at: https://evrebates.sce.com/
