Requires the Environmental Protection Agency in fiscal year 2012 and, again, in fiscal year 2013 to make a grant of $500,000 to a not-for-profit car-sharing organization.

Effective immediately.

Authorizes the Environmental Protection Agency, through fiscal year 2013, to make grants to car sharing organizations in Illinois for the purchase of electric vehicles. Specifies requirements for grant applications. Specifies amounts the Agency may award in grants, as well as information that is to be considered by the Agency when making these grants. Places limitations on the use of these grant funds. Requires grantees to report certain information to the Agency within one year after receiving a grant. Requires, subject to certain exceptions, vehicles purchased in Illinois to remain in the State for at least 5 years. Effective immediately.
