Fiscal Detail and Notes
This bill establishes an electric vehicle rebate program to be administered by the Efficiency Maine Trust (EMT) and creates two funds, the Electric Vehicle Fund and the Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Fund. The program and associated funds will receive revenue from federal funds or awards, the interest generated by these funds and from other public or private sources.  It is anticipated that the revenue derived from these sources will be sufficient to fund the program activities outlined in the bill and the administrative costs of the program for the EMT.
