E-bike Grant Scheme

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The scheme is now clo​​sed

• The planned July 2024 application process has been cancelled.
  

Closure of the E-bike Grant Scheme

​​​We have decided to cancel the final release of e-bike grants because of the low redemption rate of vouchers awarded under scheme.

We're not planning to offer any more e-bike grants.

About the E-bike Grant Scheme

The E-bike Grant Scheme offered a grant toward the cost of buying a new electric bike (e-bike) through a registered supplier.

Individuals could only apply for 1 type of e-bike grant each release and could only receive 1 grant per person.

We released grants in batches during 2023 and 2024. Grants were awarded on a first come first served basis.

All e-bikes used in Jersey must comply with the definition of 'electrically assisted pedal cycles' found in the Pedal Cycles (Jersey) Order 1998.

​Why encourage e-bike use

The Carbon Neutral Roadmap (CNR) was agreed by the States Assembly in April 2022. It sets out how Jersey will meet its long-term target of reaching net zero emissions by 2050 in line with the Paris agreement. 

​Benefits of e-bikes include:

• low emission of carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases
• help reduce traffic congestion
• provide access for those who may struggle with a regular push bike
• improve air quality
• assist with tackling the hilly Jersey topography
• increase physical activity
