Hawaii is working to change from the most fossil fuel dependent state to the nation’s leading example of clean energy deployment. As part of this transition, Hawaii is committing to support electric vehicles.
Transportation Energy Diversification Project: Hawaii EV Ready Rebate and Grant Program
The purpose of the Transportation Energy Diversification Project is to transform Hawaii’s transportation sector to become less dependent on liquid petroleum fuels by accelerating the adoption of electric drive vehicles and related charging equipment in Hawaii. Only commercially available technologies are available for funding.

To educate and inform members of the electric vehicle industry, Rebuild Hawaii Consortium members, Hawaii businesses, non-profit organizations, and State and County government entities about plug-in electric vehicles and related charging equipment requirements in Hawaii.
Rebuild Hawaii Consortium
The Rebuild Hawaii Consortium, established in 1998, is a 600 member state-wide networking and information sharing group that includes federal, state, and local government agencies; schools, colleges and universities; utilities; energy service companies, and community and private business organizations. Participants meet to share information and experiences on energy efficiency and resource conservation programs, projects, technologies, practices, and products. The Consortium encourages and facilitates partnerships that help leverage the assets of its members to develop innovative solutions to energy and resource efficiency issues.
Hawaii Clean Energy Initiative
A partnership between the State of Hawai‘i and the U.S. Department of Energy launched in 2008, the Hawai‘i Clean Energy Initiative (HCEI) is bringing together business leaders, policy makers, and concerned citizens committed to leading Hawai‘i to energy independence. The Hawai‘i Clean Energy Initiative aims to meet 70% of Hawaii’s energy needs with clean energy by 2030 and transform Hawai‘i into a world model for energy independence and sustainability.
