15 Active Level 2 EV Charging Incentive Programs Across the U.S.

On-site EV charging stations offer business owners many positive benefits: 

While it’s hard to argue with the pros of on-site EV charging stations, one of the top barriers business owners encounter when installing electric vehicle service equipment (EVSE) is the cost.  

But did you know there are incentive, grant, and rebate programs available that can offset and, in some cases, completely cover the cost of EV charging equipment and other associated fees (i.e., electrical infrastructure, labor, construction, permits, etc.)? 

There are currently more than 15 active programs across the U.S. that public and private businesses can qualify for. These programs may cover some or all of the cost of Level 2 charging equipment, infrastructure upgrades, or both. 

What Is Level 2 EV Charging Equipment? 

AC Level 2 equipment (Level 2) makes up 80% of all public EV charging ports across the U.S. All available EVs sold in the U.S. can charge on Level 2 equipment, regardless of the make or model.  

Level 2 EVSE offers a faster charging speed than Level 1 chargers, and is often more affordable and readily available compared to Level 3 (DC fast charging). Many times, it’s the preferred charging equipment for residential, workplace, and public charging.

How Do I Apply for an EV Charging Incentive Program? 

When it comes to open EV charging grants, rebates, or incentive programs, it’s important to remember that time is of the essence.

Most programs have strict application deadlines, a finite amount of funds dedicated to them, and operate on a first-come, first-served basis.

Some programs accept electronic applications, while others require hard copy submissions to be provided. Most programs also have various qualifications that private or public entities must abide by. This can include location, business type, amount/type of chargers installed, charger usage (i.e., public vs private access), equipment or electrical infrastructure upgrade needs, and more. Incomplete, inaccurate, or late applications could be the difference between offsetting EV charging installation by thousands of dollars or nothing at all.  

Incentive program applications can also be lengthy and unfamiliar to businesses. Since they often create an administrative burden, many businesses end up scrapping the application process altogether. That’s why it’s advantageous to work with a partner, like SitelogIQ, that handles the application and funding management process on your behalf. SitelogIQ has a dedicated team that helps with and processes incentive applications.
