It's open to light-, medium-, and heavy-duty fleets across the state, with a total of $3 million estimated for Spring 2024. There's a required minimum match of 20% that drops to 10% for qualifying entities. Applications are accepted biannually in Spring and Fall, with a rolling application open year-round for smaller requests? (Colorado Energy Office)?.

The Colorado Clean Diesel Program, part of the Diesel Emissions Reduction Act (DERA), supports fleets with diesel vehicles to transition to cleaner technologies. The Clean Heavy-Duty Vehicle Program, expected to announce funding opportunities in early 2024, targets Class 6 – 7 vehicles for electrification. Additional incentives through the Inflation Reduction Act provide clean energy tax credits for tax-exempt and governmental entities? (Drive Clean Colorado)?.
Northern Colorado Clean Cities Coalition: As a local resource, the Northern Colorado Clean Cities Coalition offers various tools and resources to assist fleet operators in transitioning to cleaner fuel options. While specific incentive details are not provided, the coalition serves as a gateway to regional and national programs that support fleet electrification and sustainability efforts?
