If you’re a Sonoma Clean Power customer, you’re in luck. The choice aggregate alternative energy provider is offering its customers a new program to help further the county’s reliance on clean, local energy in lieu of fossil fuels. The program is called Drive EverGreen: with monetary discounts and incentives, Sonoma Clean Power customers can purchase or lease a new electric vehicle for $10,000 off the manufacturer’s suggested retail price.
“This is our effort to make a shift from driving on oil to driving on clean, local energy,” said Geof Syphers, president of Sonoma Clean Power.
Syphers said the company has “negotiated pretty impressive incentives” with two Santa Rosa car dealerships: Jim Bone Nissan and Hansel BMW.
“We went to many dealerships in the area and asked for their best discount,” Syphers said.
The dealerships are offering Sonoma Clean Power customers a 2016 Nissan LEAF or 2017 BMW i3 at a significant savings through Jan. 5, 2017.
Those interested in a Nissan LEAF automatically receive a $10,000 manufacturer purchase credit. The BMW i3 offers an $8,500 manufacturer purchase credit and an additional $2,000 dealer purchase credit for SCP customers.
Additionally, Sonoma Clean Power customers who are enrolled in California Alternative Rates for Energy (CARE) or Family Electric Rate Assistance (FERA) programs are eligible for an extra $2,500 each car.
Post-purchase tax credits are also available for those who purchase electric vehicles. California offers a $2,500 rebate, plus an extra $2,000 bonus rebate for low-moderate income residents. Federal tax credits vary, but can provide a rebate of up to $7,500. Lastly, Northern Sonoma County’s 3-2-1- Go Green program offers rebates between $1,000 and $3,000, depending on the family’s income.
“You could get a new electric vehicle for under $10,000 after all the tax credits,” Syphers said.
