This evening Governor Jared Polis signed  several bills this session that will help accelerate the adoption of cleaner and more efficient options for both transportation and our built environment. HB23-1272, Tax Policy That Advances Decarbonization, increases and extends the state EV tax credit, increases the state tax credit for electric medium and heavy-duty trucks, establishes a new statewide point-of-sale incentive for e-bikes, and expands tax credits for in-home heat pumps. A second bill supporting EV adoption, HB23-1233 or Electric Vehicle Charging and Parking Requirements, requires the state electric board to adopt rules facilitating EV charging at multifamily buildings, also heads to the Governor’s desk.
