For Lim, going electric was about more than convenience; it was about living his values. 

“I’ve been working toward making my entire home run on clean energy,” he explains. “I already installed solar panels and replaced my gas appliances with electric ones. Getting an EV was the final piece of the puzzle.” 

While searching for programs that could help make his goal affordable, Lim discovered the Driving Clean Assistance Program (DCAP). “I came across DCAP while researching EV incentives online,” he says. “It was the perfect fit; it supported my clean-energy goals and offered affordable options for people who want to make a real change.” 

Through DCAP, Lim purchased a new Tesla Model 3 in June. “It met all the program’s requirements and was a great match for what I wanted,” he says. “The zero-percent financing and grant support made it possible to move forward confidently.” Now, Lim charges his car at home using his solar energy system, turning sunlight into savings. “I don’t need to buy gas anymore, and I save money every month,” he says.

“Charging overnight is convenient, and I know the energy I’m using is clean.” For Lim, driving electric is part of a bigger vision for a sustainable future. “We need to think about the future and the kind of world we leave behind,” he says. “DCAP helps people take that next step toward clean energy. It made my dream of an all-electric lifestyle a reality.”
