STATE & FEDERAL INCENTIVES AND LAWS

Our database captures state and federal laws and incentives related to alternative fuels and vehicles, air quality, fuel efficiency, and other transportation-related topics. State-level information is updated annually after each state's legislative session ends. To access state information, select a state from the map below. Federal information is updated after enacted legislation is signed into law. Select the Federal Incentives and Laws link at right for the latest federal-level information.

This is the U.S. Department of Energy’s Alternative Fuels Data Center that features an interactive map on its Web site that allows you to click on any State and find a list of all “laws and incentives related to alternative fuels and vehicles, air quality, fuel efficiency, and oher transportation-related topics.” Information is updated annually after each state’s legislative session ends.

The Alternative Fuels Data Center (AFDC) is an online collection of data, including more than 3000 documents and several interactive tools covering the topics of alternative transportation fuels, alternative fuel vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, idle reduction technologies, fuel blends, and fuel economy. The AFDC is sponsored by the U. S. Department of Energy's Clean Cities and Energy Policy Act of 1992 (EPAct) fleet programs.
