["Instructions"]
["To include your vehicle on the list of eligible vehicles for the New York Truck Voucher Incentive Program (NYTVIP), you must:"]
["• Complete the application form on the \"Vehicle Eligibility Form\" tab based on one of the following approaches:"]
["• Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM): Complete Sections 1 and 2"]
["• Upfit / Retrofit Manufacturer (URM): Complete Sections 1-2 in conjunction with OEM and dealer partners. Information for rows 22-26 should come from body suppliers and/or entities integrating powertrain/engine into a vehicle body. Each column must contain exactly one finished vehicle product (i.e., discrete combination of chassis, body, fuel storage capacity)."]
["• Save the completed electronic application form in a non-macro enabled format (e.g., .xls, .xlsx, .pdf)"]
["• Submit the completed electronic application and associated documentation to the Voucher Help Center (VHC) at NYTVIP@energycenter.org; and "]
["• Receive approval from NYSERDA for the vehicle before it is eligible for a rebate.  "]
["NYSERDA reserves the right to request additional information or clarification of information provided in this application.  This application applies to and must be completed by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), OEM's authorized dealer, or upfit/retrofit manufacturer (URM, defined as a company that installs equipment on a truck or bus rolling chassis purchased from an OEM)."]

["Eligibility Criteria"]
["The following requirements apply to vehicles as part of NYTVIP: "]
["• A vehicle must be a class 3-8 all-electric vehicle (BEV), hydrogen fuel cell vehicle (FCEV), or a class 4-8 plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), hybrid vehicle (HEV), compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicle, or propane (liquefied petroleum gas or LPG) vehicle. Personal passenger vehicles are NOT eligible for Program funding. Specifications for each technology type are defined below."]
["o   All-Electric (BEV): Use batteries powered by external electric power sources to store the electric energy that powers the motor. BEVs produce no tailpipe emissions."]
["o  Hydrogen Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV): Zero-emission vehicle that operates solely by the use of a hydrogen fuel cell, or that is powered primarily through the use of a hydrogen fuel cell."]
["o   Plug-In Hybrid (PHEV): Powered by an internal combustion engine and an electric motor that uses energy that is powered from external electric power sources stored in a battery. The internal combustion engine can power a traditional engine or a range extender that recharges the battery."]
["o   Hybrid (HEV): Powered by an internal combustion engine and by an electric motor that uses energy stored in a battery. The battery is charged through regenerative braking and by the internal combustion engine and does not plug in to charge."]
["o  Compressed Natural Gas (CNG): Powered solely by natural gas that is compressed in a gaseous state stored in onboard tanks."]
["o  Liquefied Petroleum Gas (Propane): Powered solely by petroleum gas that is compressed in a liquid state stored in onboard tanks."]
["•  A vehicle that runs entirely or in part by combusting liquid or gaseous fuels (i.e., PHEV, HEV, CNG, FCEV, or LPG) must meet the 0.02 g NOx/bhp-hr certification standard when operating in combustion mode to be eligible for Program funding.\n\n•  A vehicle must be purchased from a Participating Contractor. The OEM or URM must provide documentation to NYSERDA verifying the incremental cost of the vehicle(s) relative to a comparable diesel vehicle. In cases where the incremental cost is not immediately clear, such as with low-volume or specialty vehicles, NYSERDA may request that the Contractor provide documentation of incremental cost as part of the Voucher Application in addition to the Vehicle Eligibility Application.\n\n•  All Eligible Vehicles (excluding repowers, see below for eligibility information) must be new, including the vehicle chassis. Vehicles and/or vehicle chassis cannot be previously registered in any state, fully paid for by the Vehicle Purchaser (other than a vehicle down payment), or have been delivered to the Vehicle Purchaser prior to the Contractor applying for a voucher. Used vehicles (including vehicles used by dealers, OEMs, or other entities or for demonstration purposes) are NOT eligible.\n\n•  Repowered vehicles may be eligible for NYTVIP funding. For such projects, OEMs or URMs shall provide documentation to NYSERDA that shows the cost of repowering a truck or bus relative to purchasing a new diesel-powered equivalent vehicle. Repowered vehicles must be certified with an expected operational lifespan of at least 10 years by the Vehicle Purchaser. Chassis may be re-used for repowers (i.e., not destroyed in Scrappage) as typically only the engine is replaced.\n\n•  Modifications that can significantly impact the vehicle’s tailpipe emissions characteristics (e.g., through emissions retrofits, hardware or software) are NOT permitted for five years from the date of vehicle delivery. Program funding may not be used to pay for purchase or installation of fuel-fired heaters, though they may be installed at the cost of the Eligible Fleet or Contractor on Program-funded BEV buses.\n\n•  The vehicles must meet all federal and state requirements for operation in New York State. The OEM or upfit/retrofit manufacturer must also certify that the vehicle model complies with all applicable federal safety standards for new motor vehicles and new motor vehicle equipment issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) are found in Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 571.\n\n•  The vehicle engine (if applicable), drive train, and battery pack (if applicable) must be covered by a manufacturer’s warranty. Prior to approving a vehicle model to the list of Eligible Vehicles posted on the Program Website, NYSERDA may request that the OEM provide copies of representative warranties for vehicle, engine, and/or powertrain components (e.g., battery pack) and documentation (such as warranty contracts) of the OEM’s or URM’s plans to provide warranty and routine vehicle service. The warranty must provide protection for a minimum of 36 months or 50,000 miles (whichever comes first). The first 12 months of the coverage period must be a full warranty covering, at a minimum, the engine or motor (whichever is applicable), powertrain components, parts and labor. If the warranty for the remaining 24 months is prorated, the percentage of the original value of the vehicle component in question (e.g., battery pack or engine) to be covered or refunded must be at least as high as the percentage of the prorated coverage period remaining. For the purpose of this computation, the age of the vehicle component in question must be expressed in intervals no larger than three months.\n\n•  If a Contractor does not own a New York State repair facility or does not have a contract with a New York State entity to provide repair and warranty service, the Contractor must submit a written plan (including contracts) for how it intends to provide warranty service, replacement parts, and technical support in New York State. The maintenance/repair plan must be submitted to the VHC for approval. The plan must be approved by NYSERDA for vehicles to be eligible to receive incentives under the Program.\n\n•  Manufacturers (OEMs or URMs) or Contractors, as part of submitting documentation to the VHC for vehicle eligibility, must submit the costs of the All-Electric or Alternative Fuel vehicles they want to be included in the program and the cost of a conventional diesel vehicle with equivalent payloads, vocation and features. The difference in price between those two vehicles is the incremental cost. The applicable voucher amount will cover a portion of the incremental cost up to the maximum voucher amount by weight class, vocation, and fuel type. \n\n•  The final assembly of Eligible Vehicles must take place in the United States and must consist of significant value and effort. For a vehicle to be listed as eligible, its OEM or URM must submit documentation to NYSERDA regarding the location, actions performed, and total value of final assembly. Vehicles with components assembled entirely within the United States may note the location of assembly, excluding the action performed and the value."]
