The Adams Administration has allocated $2 million to fund the program with the goal of providing over 400 new certified e-bikes and spare batteries through trade-ins in 2025. The trade-in program was established in response to Local Law 131 of 2023 sponsored by Council Member Keith Powers.
“Today, the City Council took a decisive step by establishing a first-in-the-nation battery trade-in program,” said Majority Leader Keith Powers. “It provides a clear, immediate pathway to get thousands of unsafe batteries out of our homes and off our streets.
Our first-in-the-nation e-bike trade-in program continues our safety work by allowing delivery workers to exchange unsafe vehicles for high quality e-bikes with certified batteries. This $2 million program is a wise investment to take dangerous mobility devices off our streets, just as we do for firearms.
The program offers trade-ins of both e-micromobility devices and lithium-ion batteries to help ensure that unsafe batteries and devices are fully removed from New York City streets, and that batteries are compatible with the devices they are powering.
“Today, the Council took decisive action to protect our communities by establishing an unprecedented trade-in program for uncertified lithium-ion batteries to reduce dangerous fires caused by those that don't meet safety standards,” said Speaker Adrienne Adams.
Lead-acid batteries are the most common type accepted for core charge transactions. They are used primarily in vehicles, such as cars, trucks, and motorcycles. According to the Battery Council International (BCI), over 90% of lead-acid batteries are recycled. This high recycling rate makes them a popular choice for core charge policies.
By swapping these illegal devices for UL-certified e-bikes and batteries, the program will reduce fire and crash risks, help participants comply with local and state laws, and encourage workers to utilize cleaner and greener forms of e-mobility for deliveries.
All-in BESS projects now cost just $125/kWh as of October 2025 2. With a $65/MWh LCOS, shifting half of daily solar generation overnight adds just $33/MWh to the cost of solarAs of most recent estimates, the cost of a BESS by MW is between $200,000 and $450,000, varying by location, system size, and market conditions. This translates to around $200 - $450 per kWh, though in some markets, prices have dropped as low as $150 per kWh. Key Factors Influencing BESS Prices. In 2026, the average price for Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery modules (the cells and racks) has stabilized in the range of $140 to $240 per kWh for the hardware alone.

Cuba lacks a detailed strategic roadmap towards a comprehensive national energy policy that addresses these challenges. Since the government announced in 2014 a strategy to increase the share of renewable sources in electricity generation, that portion has hovered around 5%. Cuba is currently facing a major electricity crisis that is affecting millions of people every day. Across the country, blackouts last for hours. Refrigeration becomes unreliable. Since late 2024, the island has experienced repeated total grid collapses, rolling blackouts lasting 18 or more hours per day, and a fuel shortage that has left its aging power plants unable to meet even half of the country's electricity. Direct, coordinate, execute and control compliance with the policy approved by the State and the Government for the sustainable development of the activities of the electricity sector in the country and the attention to its business system. It will take years and billions of dollars to rebuild its generating capacity. This text updates an English translation published in May 17, 2023 of an article published on December 17, 2022.
