The Clean Efficient Automobiles Resulting from Advanced Care Technologies Act of 2005, or the CLEAR Act, provides a tax credit for the purchase of alternative fuels. It also promotes the alternative fuel infrastructure by extending an existing tax deduction for the purchase of the necessary equipment and providing a new tax credit for the cost of installing it, and provides a tax credit to consumers who purchase alternative fuel and advanced technology vehicles.
