The scheme is now closed
The planned July 2024 application process was cancelled.
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.
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.
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
