E-BIKE REBATE PROGRAM TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1. ELIGIBILITY: Customers eligible to receive a rebate under RCEA’s E-Bike Program (“Program”) must:

• • Be an existing RCEA Community Choice Energy residential electricity customer account holder of a service account that is paid current as of the date of application;
  • Purchase an E-bike model listed on the RCEA Approved Products List; and
  • Submit a properly completed application including documentation showing proof of purchase.

1. RESTRICTIONS: RESTRICTIONS: Maximum of one e-bike rebate per residential account service address (or unit number for multifamily residences with a shared electric account) every 5 years. Rebates are subject to funding availability; submittal of a completed application will not guarantee receipt of a rebate.  Applications are received and rebates are issued on a first-come first-served basis until funding is depleted or the Program changes. Applicants placed on a Program waiting list may qualify for the rebate if additional funds become available during the Program.  All incentives are final, and customers are not eligible to apply for larger incentives from the same program should they become available. Rebates may not exceed the final amount shown on the submitted receipt for the e-bike. Customers will receive 50% of the value of the purchased e-bike up to a $500 rebate. RCEA staff and Board of Directors are not eligible for this rebate.
2. APPROVED PRODUCTS: This rebate incentive is available only to purchases of products listed on RCEA’s Approved Products List, available on RCEA’s website or in print at our office. Additional product models may be suggested to RCEA for review and inclusion on the Approved Products List; however, no rebates will be issued for purchases made prior to inclusion on the Approved Products List. Applications submitted for product models removed from the Approved Product List will be processed if the purchase was made prior to removal from the Approved Products List.
3. REBATE PAYMENTS: Rebate payments will be made by check payable to the electric service account holder and will be issued within 30 days following application approval. For service accounts held in more than one name, rebate checks will be issued payable to the applicant. RCEA reserves the right to request a completed and signed IRS Form W-9 before releasing the rebate payment.
4. LIMITATIONS: RCEA reserves the right to deny a rebate to any individual deemed, in RCEA’s sole discretion, to be violating the terms, conditions, and restrictions of the Program.
5. TAX LIABILITY and CREDITS: RCEA is not responsible for any taxes which may be imposed on the customer as a result of the rebates provided by the Program. The customer is solely responsible for identifying and applying for tax credits, if any are available.
6. DISPUTES: Except where otherwise limited by law, RCEA reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to make final determinations regarding any disputed issues about the Program, including but not limited to eligibility and rebate amount.
7. PROGRAM CHANGES: RCEA reserves the right to change, modify, or terminate the Program at any time without any liability except as expressly stated herein.
8. PROGRAM TIMEFRAME: The Program will launch on April 22, 2020. No rebates will be issued for purchases made prior to Program launch. The Program will expire upon the earliest to occur: (i) October 31, 2020, (ii) when funds are depleted, or (iii) when the Program is terminated.
9. DISCLAIMER: RCEA makes no guarantee, representations or warranties, expressed or implied, regarding the implementation or use of product purchased pursuant to this Program. Use of any product and acceptance of materials used is solely the customer’s responsibility. RCEA does not endorse any product that may be included on an Approved Products List, and such inclusion may not be used for marketing purposes other than to state the fact of its purchase as eligible for a rebate under this Program.
10. CUSTOMER DISCLOSURE AUTHORIZATION: By signing the Rebate Application form, the applicant confirms they are the service account holder of the account identified in the Application form, or authorized representative thereof, and authorize RCEA to disclose customer’s name as a participant in the Program.
