The State Energy Program (SEP) encourages the adoption and use of cleaner,
more efficient vehicles such as hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) and alternative
fuel vehicles (AFVs).
SEP works with the Utah Clean
Cities Coalition to promote the advancement of fuel efficient vehicles
(including HEVs), AFVs, idle reduction strategies and alternative fuel
blends.
SEP also encourages citizens, businesses, and government agencies to
take advantage of state and federal incentives for the purchase of cleaner
and efficient vehicles.
The Utah Division of Air Quality administers both the Clean Fuel and Vehicle Technology Grant and Loan Program and Clean Fuel Vehicle Tax Credit. These programs provide incentives for high efficiency and alternative fuel vehicles.
