As we approach the final day of 2024, we’re still seeing some solid savings across a variety of Green Deals, with today’s roundup led by Aventon’s New Years sale that has the Pace 500.3 Cruiser e-bikes continuing its Holiday bundle with a free extra battery for double mileage at $1,599. You’ll also find Anker’s newest SOLIX C200 DC 60,000mAh Power Bank Station down at $110, as well as Hoverfly’s GXL Max e-scooter hitting a new $330 low. Bringing up the rear are two one-day-only tool sales on Greenworks’ 80V 750 CFM Cordless Handheld Blower at its $170 low alongside Worx’s Nitro 40V 20-inch Cordless Snow Blower that is down at $350. Plus, all the other hangover Green Deals from last week (including the final sales of the year) can be found in the links at the bottom of the page within our Electrified Weekly coverage.

Head below for other New Green Deals we’ve found today and, of course, Electrek’s best EV buying and leasing deals. Also, check out the new Electrek Tesla Shop for the best deals on Tesla accessories.

Aventon is offering its final deals of 2024 with its Holiday savings through its New Year sale on its e-bike lineup. The notable standouts here are the ongoing bundles for the Pace 500.3 Cruiser e-bike and its step-through counterpart which are both down at $1,599 shipped on top of receiving extra batteries for double the mileage. Normally these models sit at a full $1,799 price tag, with discounts direct from Aventon dropping things to $1,399 before tariffs jacked up prices, while Best Buy saw costs taken as low as $1,099 at the start of the year, though there was no extra battery included then. While this sale lasts, you’ll score $200 off its going rate for the third-lowest price, but you’ll also be getting the $500 extra battery for free, making this a great opportunity for folks looking to really go the distance.

You won’t have to worry about not having enough commuting power here, as the Pace 500.3 e-bikes provide a standard 60-mile travel range (doubled to 120 miles thanks to the extra battery) and top speeds of up to 28 MPH. The 500W rear-hub motor and integrated 48V battery are ready to support you with four levels of PAS and a torque sensor for faster pick-up action. The upright cruiser frame sports integrated lights that deliver turn signal functionality, as well as other great features like the hydraulic disc brakes, puncture-resistant tires, an 8-speed Shimano derailleur, and an LCD smart “easy read” display with a concealed USB port so you can charge your smartphone while also syncing up with the Aventon app as you go.

For folks looking for less cost and similarly reliable commuting support (without any doubled mileage), I recommend also considering the Soltera.2 Commuter e-bike that is down at its lowest $999 shipped rate right now. It provides a 20 MPH top speed for up to 46 miles, with four levels of PAS and a torque sensor, but it’s the lightweight design that makes this model shine. At just 46 pounds, with a more compact design overall than the brand’s other models, this e-bike is perfect for urban commuters and folks living in smaller apartment spaces that might not have a garage for storage. There’s also the new and improved Soltera 2.5 model that is now available at $1,199 shipped.

You can browse the full lineup of Aventon’s New Year sale on the landing page here. 

Aventon New Years

Anker’s new SOLIX C200 DC 60,000mAh power bank station falls to $110

Amazon is outdoing Anker’s New Year sale pricing on the SOLIX C200 DC 60,000mAh Power Bank Station at $109.99 shipped, after clipping the on-page $60 off coupon. Normally this newer model would run you $170 at its full rate, which has seen a few discounts since releasing a few months ago, the biggest of which saw a drop to the $100 low with Cyber Monday savings. Today, you can score one at the second-lowest price we have tracked, which even beats the pricing from Anker’s current New Year sale by $10.

Anker’s SOLIX C200 DC power bank station is a smaller and more compact version of the brand’s new C300 DC and AC models, coming in with a slightly smaller 60,000mAh/192Wh LiFePO4 capacity. It delivers up to 300W of output power to your devices through its five port options (two USB-As, one 140W USB-C, one 15W USB-C, one car port). You can refill the units own battery via three ways, with its 140W USB-C port giving you an 80% charge in 1.3 hours through a wall outlet, or you can utilize up to 100W of solar input or the car port for 80% in 1.6 hours.

You’ll also find the larger 90,000mAh C300 DC and C300 AC models matching their direct Anker discounts at Amazon for $150 and $190 at the moment. Not only are you getting the expanded 90,000mAh LiFePO4 capacity here, but they also come sporting different variations of built-in lights for camping trips. You can get the full rundown on its other capabilities in our launch coverage here.

Be sure to also browse through the lineup of New Years deals direct from Anker’s SOLIX sale through January 5 to secure some of the lowest returning prices we saw during Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

Hoverfly GXL Max e-scooter

Commuting independence is affordable with Hoverfly’s 16-mile trekking GXL Max e-scooter at new $330 low

Amazon is offering the Hoverfly GXL MAX Electric Scooter for $330.41 shipped. It’s been slowly cascading down from its usual $500 price tag from Amazon (with a higher $530 MSRP elsewhere), with costs at its lowest just after Cyber Monday when it hit $360 for the first time. That rate is getting beaten out here today with this 34% markdown, saving you $170 at a new all-time low. This price also beats out Hoverfly’s direct website where it’s currently discounted to $450.

Finding a reliable commuting solution for your day-to-day life doesn’t have to be a financial hassle, and your wallet will certainly get some relief with Hoverfly’s GXL MAX e-scooter. This scooter provides speeds up to 15.5 MPH for as long as 16 miles of travel on one charge thanks to the combination of its 300W motor and 36V 7.8Ah battery. It also comes with added features like the anti-flat 10-inch honeycomb and shock-absorbing tires for more comfortable riding, while also weighing in at just 35 pounds, making it easily manageable to carry up and down stairs or into your place of work to charge before heading home later.

Greenworks 750 CFM handheld blower

Get 170 MPH of debris-clearing force with this Greenworks 80V cordless blower at $170 low (Today only)

As part of its Deals of the Day, Best Buy is offering the Greenworks 80V 750 CFM Cordless Handheld Blower for $169.99 shipped through the rest of the day. Normally this model would run you $250, which we’ve seen discounted a few times in 2024 to either $180 or $170. You can score it here today with $80 struck from the tag, saving you $80 at the lowest price we have tracked to date. The closest model you’ll find at Amazon is this 500 CFM model for $200, with Greenworks’ direct site offering it refurbished at $180 or brand new for nearly $400, meaning you’ll be getting it from Best Buy at much less cost while the savings last.

With this Greenworks leaf blower in your arsenal, you’ll get plenty of strong force hitting up to 170 MPH speeds to clear out leaves and debris from around your home. The included 2.5Ah battery provides a 60-minute runtime on a single charge, with it easily switching out with other batteries from the brand you may already have for extended duties. It’s been given a quieter design thanks to the brushless motor and also sports a variable speed trigger for on-demand power bumps as you need them, complete with a cruise control and turbo function – plus, the whole thing comes in much lighter than other models at just 8.82 pounds.

Wox 40V 20-inch cordless snow blower

Clear out your walkways with Worx’s Nitro 40V 20-inch cordless snow blower at $350 (Today only)

Coming at us through its Deals of the Day, Best Buy is giving you the chance to get ahold of the Worx Nitro 40V 20-inch Cordless Snow Blower with two 4.0Ah batteries for $349.99 shipped. We normally see this model and battery combo sitting at a $440 price tag most days, with discounts offering the biggest cash savings during Cyber Monday that saw things taken to the $300 low. Today, you can score it with a 20% markdown here, slashing $90 off its going rate and giving it to you at the third-lowest price we have tracked overall. It’s even matching in price at Amazon and beating out its price direct from Worx, where it’s currently discounted to $360.

With winter having arrived and blanketed plenty of the nation in powder, this Worx snow blower provides you with the means to clear a 20-inch wide path, tossing snow up to 20 feet out of the way with its 180-degree rotating chute. There is a one-touch snow deflector here for quicker adjustments to its throwing height and distance, as well as LED headlights for visibility at darker hours. Storage has been simplified thanks to the collapsible handle, saving you some space when it’s not in use. Along with the two 4.0Ah batteries, you’ll also get a 4A dual-port charger too.

Best ongoing holiday e-bike deals!

Trump admin halts $5 billion NY offshore wind project mid-build

Trump admin halts billion NY offshore wind project mid-build

In its most aggressive attack against offshore wind yet, the Trump administration halted the $5 billion Empire Wind 1, already under construction off New York’s coast.

Norwegian developer Equinor announced yesterday that it received notice from the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) ordering Empire Wind 1 to halt all activities on the outer continental shelf until BOEM has completed its review. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum posted this tweet yesterday:

Burgum gave no indication of what insufficiencies there were in the approval process for the fully permitted offshore wind project, despite Trump’s recent declaration of a national energy emergency that speeds up permitting processes.

The commercial lease for the 810-megawatt (MW) Empire Wind 1’s federal offshore wind area was signed in March 2017 during the first Trump administration. It was approved by the Biden administration in November 2023 and began construction in 2024.

The project is being developed under contract with the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA). Empire Wind 1, which was due to come online in 2027, has the potential to power 500,000 New York homes.

“Halting construction of fully permitted energy projects is the literal opposite of an energy abundance agenda,” said American Clean Power Association CEO Jason Grumet in a statement. “We encourage the administration to quickly address perceived inadequacies in the prior permit approvals so that this project can complete construction and bring much-needed power to the grid.”

As Electrek reported, Equinor secured $3 billion to finance Empire Wind 1 in January. The total amount drawn under the project finance term loan facility as of March 31 was around $1.5 billion. 

As of March 31, Empire Wind has a gross book value of around $2.5 billion, including South Brooklyn Marine Terminal (pictured above), which was expected to become the US’s largest dedicated port facility for offshore wind.

In response to BOEM’s stop work order, New York Governor Kathy Hochul issued the following statement:

Every single day, I’m working to make energy more affordable, reliable and abundant in New York and the federal government should be supporting those efforts rather than undermining them. Empire Wind 1 is already employing hundreds of New Yorkers, including 1,000 good-paying union jobs as part of a growing sector that has already spurred significant economic development and private investment throughout the state and beyond.

As Governor, I will not allow this federal overreach to stand. I will fight this every step of the way to protect union jobs, affordable energy and New York’s economic future.

Equinor says it’s considering appealing BOEM’s order.

To limit power outages and make your home more resilient, consider going solar with a battery storage system.

Leading today’s Green Deals is Jackery’s Earth Day Sale that is taking up to 50% off power stations, with many of them being marked down from the brand’s short-term Easter savings, complete with bonus savings.

Coming up right behind it is G-Force Bikes’ Spring Sale with up to $800 in e-bike savings, the largest of which is on the moto-styled ZM All-Terrain Fat Tire e-bike that starts at $1,199 for an 80-mile trekking single-battery setup, with a double battery option not much higher. Lastly, we have a one-day-only new low price on the Greenworks 1,900 PSI Steel-Framed Electric Pressure Washer at $118, as well as a bonus cleaner attachment deal.

Invest in sustainable power for on-the-go and home backup at up to 50% off with Jackery’s Earth Day Sale from $90

Jackery has officially launched its Earth Day Sale through April 25 which is lowering many of its previous Easter offers with up to 50% off a collection of power stations, solar generators, and some accessories – and we’re also seeing on-page promo codes for extra savings. One such bundle gives you the brand’s Explorer 2000 Plus Portable Power Station with a 500W solar panel for $1,614.05 shipped, after using the promo code EXTRA5 at checkout for an additional 5% off. It’s already coming down from its usual $2,949 price tag, with the bonus savings dipping that price further, back to the best we’ve seen from some of this year’s previous events. You’re looking at a combined 45% markdown here, putting $1,335 back in your pocket and equipping you with an expandable means for on-the-go and at-home backup power at the lowest price we have tracked. Like most of the deals in this sale, you’ll find this package beating out its Amazon pricing too, where it’s currently sitting $307 higher.

Grabbing this Jackery Explorer 2000 Plus bundle starts you off with a 2,042Wh LiFePO4 capacity that can support up to five extra batteries that increase things to 12,000Wh – plus, there’s the option to continue expansion with two of these setups being linked together to reach 24,000Wh. Power output here provides a steady 3,000W through the 10 ports, surging to 6,000W for larger needs, which becomes its regular output levels within expanded setups. It also has a 1,200W maximum solar input, which recharges the battery to full in two hours with six 200W panels (so around 5+ hours with the bundle here). You can also have the battery recharged via a wall outlet in two hours as well, though this doesn’t account for expandable setups.

G-Force ZM All-Terrain e-bike

G-Force Spring Sale drops moto-styled ZM all-terrain e-bike with 80-mile range to $1,199

G-Force Bikes is having a Spring Sale running through the rest of the month that is also being billed as a “last-chance sale” before prices increase due to tariffs, with the brand providing a countdown clock on its site. Among the up to $800 we’re seeing across the brand’s lineup of e-bikes, we spotted the ZM All-Terrain Fat Tire e-bike down at $1,199 shipped. Normally fetching $1,999 direct from the brand, with third-party sites pricing it as high as $2,499, the discounts we have tracked over the last year have mainly been seen dropping costs between $1,299 and $1,499. It’s getting the maximum savings during this sale at $800 off, dropping it to the lowest price we can find while also giving you a pair of HD wide-angle rearview mirrors free of charge, valued at $49.

The G-Force ZM e-bike borrows heavily from motorcycle styling while still retaining a street-legal class 3 status, equipped with a 750W brushless gear hub motor that can peak as high as 1,300W to deliver up to 86Nm of torque power, topping out at 28 MPH speeds. What’s more, for such an affordable price, it also provides some extensive traveling range, with the standard 20Ah single-battery option carrying you 60 to 80 miles with its five PAS levels or you can double that to 120 to 160 for just $200 more with the 40Ah dual-battery setup.

For such a low price, there’s a nice array of quality features that it brings along, like the full suspension, with an adjustable front fork and rear system for smoother riding, along with hydraulic disc brakes for guaranteed stopping power, and 20-inch puncture-resistant tires with fenders over each for those off-road ventures. That’s not all, as you’ll also find it has a 400-pound payload, a 48V LED headlight, an integrated rear light with braking functionality, a 7-speed Shimano derailleur, a wear-resistant padded bench seat with room for a passenger, a half-twist throttle for electric cruising, and a large color LCD with a USB port for charging up devices as you ride, particularly nice if you use your phone as a GPS.

Greenworks 1,900 PSI electric pressure washer

Get rid of muck with this steel-framed Greenworks 1,900 PSI electric pressure washer at new $118 low (Today only)

As part of its Deals of the Day, Best Buy is offering the best rate yet on the Greenworks 1,900 PSI Steel-Framed Cold Water Electric Pressure Washer for $117.99 shipped. This model usually goes for $200 in full, with the discounts we’ve seen taking things as low as $120 over the past year. That rate is getting beaten out here by $2 for the rest of the day only, providing you a total of $82 in savings and marking a new all-time low. You won’t find this model currently available at Amazon, nor is it getting any discounts direct from Greenworks either. Below, you’ll also find a secondary one-day-only deal on a cleaning attachment that amplifies its capabilities.

Sporting a durable open steel frame design, the 13A motor on this Greenworks pressure washer provides you with up to 1,900 PSI at a 1.2 GPM flow rate to tackle the muck and grime along driveways, walkways, and the like. You won’t need to wrestle with pull strings, as it starts up with the press of a button, not to mention its electrical functionality, getting rid of the fumes and costs from gas – plus, it even has a waterproof plug at the end of its 35-foot power cord to ensure extra protection. You’ll have on-board storage for the included nozzles, the hose, and the metal spray gun, as well as an integrated soap tank for detergent when you need some extra cleaning power.

A secondary deal lasting the rest of the day that compliments the above or any of the brand’s pressure washers, is the 12-inch Surface Cleaner Attachment for $20.99 shipped, down from $40. It has a quick-connect feature for a faster and more effortless setup, with dual cleaning nozzles on its underside to level up the pressure washer’s cleaning power and coverage area.
