Utility E-Bike Rebates
Two real programs. We've broken down everything you need to know to get your money back.
$500 BACK · PWP
Up to $1,000 per account
$300 BACK · GWP
Up to $400 with Glendale Care
How it works
The same three steps apply whether you're claiming a PWP or GWP rebate.
- 1
Buy your bike
Purchase your e-bike from Pedal Hut at the listed price. You pay the full amount at checkout — the rebate is reimbursed separately by the utility, not by us.
- 2
Apply with your utility
Within the program's deadline (6 months / 180 days from the date of purchase), submit your rebate application directly to PWP or GWP with your receipt, photos of the bike and serial number, and the program's agreement form.
- 3
Get reimbursed
Once your application is approved, the utility mails you a rebate check. GWP is typically 2–3 weeks after approval; PWP is typically 6–8 weeks. The money comes from PWP or GWP, not from Pedal Hut.
