~ Tacoma, Wash. - On April 9, 2025, the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) and the City of Tacoma will launch two new e-bike rebate programs. These programs aim to make e-bikes more accessible and affordable for residents in Tacoma and across the state.

The first program, called WE-bike, will offer approximately 10,000 e-bike rebates statewide through an instant rebate system. In addition, the City of Tacoma has secured grant funding from the Washington State Department of Ecology to provide 450 e-bike rebates specifically for residents living in overburdened communities highly impacted by air quality.

Council Member Kristina Walker expressed her excitement for the program, stating that she believes community members will be inspired to apply for the rebate and give e-bikes a try. She also highlighted the positive impact that more people on bikes can have on greenhouse gas emissions, aligning with the city's Climate Action Plan goals.

Residents who qualify for these rebates may receive either a $1,200 or $300 rebate depending on their household income. The rebates can be redeemed at pre-approved bike shops for selected e-bike models that meet program criteria. However, there is a limit of one rebate per household.

To be eligible for a rebate, applicants must live in Washington state and be at least 16 years old. They must also provide contact and demographic information as well as have an email address. For Tacoma-specific rebates, applicants must live in an overburdened community highly impacted by air quality within the city.

The application portal will be open from April 9 to April 23 at noon and will be available in both English and Spanish. Due to high demand, rebates will be distributed through a raffle system after the application period closes.

To further promote these programs and educate residents about e-bikes, the City of Tacoma and Downtown on the Go will be hosting community events throughout April. These events include an E-Bike Community Party at Catherine Ushka's Gas Station Park on April 9, an E-Bike Community Party at South Park Water Flume Line Trail on April 12, and the Pierce County Bike Swap at Tacoma Community College on April 19.

The City will also offer free events and classes to support new e-bike riders who receive the rebates.

Funding for the City's portion of the program comes from the Washington State Department of Ecology as part of the Climate Commitment Act. This act supports Washington's climate action efforts by using cap-and-invest dollars to reduce climate pollution, create jobs, and improve public health.

More information about these e-bike rebate programs, including how to apply, can be found on the City of Tacoma's website at cityoftacoma.org/ebikes. Residents are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity to switch to cleaner and more sustainable transportation options.
