Description
The New York Truck Voucher Incentive Program (NYTVIP) provides point‑of‑sale voucher rebates to qualified New York State fleet owners for purchasing or leasing zero‑emission Class 3‑8 vehicles, non‑road equipment, and electric transit buses. Dealers (contractors) act as voucher marketers, collect required documentation, submit voucher applications through NYSERDA’s Salesforce portal, and receive payment after vehicle/equipment delivery and verification. The program is funded on a first‑come, first‑served basis until the $53 million budget is exhausted, with a final application deadline of 12 Dec 2029.
• Eligibility: Commercial, non‑profit, and public‑sector fleet owners operating in NY; dealers must be NY‑licensed and have OEM authorization.
• Incentive Structure: Base voucher amounts (determined per vehicle/equipment) plus optional bonuses (small‑fleet, scrappage, disadvantaged‑community). Funding sources include RGGI and the Volkswagen Settlement.
• Contractor Responsibilities: Market vouchers, gather purchaser agreements, manage scrappage documentation, complete the voucher redemption process, retain records (5 years) and provide reporting for 3‑5 years.
• Reporting & Compliance: Mandatory reporting of vehicle/equipment usage data, adherence to NY procurement statutes, tax certifications, and anti‑boycott provisions.
