Which E-Bikes Qualify for the Credit?

Your e-bike must meet all these requirements:

  • New (not used)
  • Motor ≤ 750 watts and no gasoline engine
  • 2 or 3 wheels with fully operable pedals
  • Certified to UL 2849, UL 2271, or EN 15194 (look for the UL logo on the battery)
  • Class 1, 2, or 3 e-bikes all qualify
  • Adaptive e-bikes are included
  • No minimum or maximum price

Quick Guide to E-Bike Classes

  • Class 1 – Pedal-assist only, stops at 20 mph
  • Class 2 – Throttle + pedal-assist, stops at 20 mph
  • Class 3 – Pedal-assist only, stops at 28 mph

Why UL Certification Is Now Required

After gathering feedback from November 2023 to January 2024, the Colorado Energy Office now requires every qualifying e-bike to meet strict independent safety standards. UL 2849 is the highest U.S. standard for batteries and electrical systems. These rules will be updated yearly.
