Yes, various rebates and tax credits may be available to offset installation costs. These may include but are not limited to a 30% federal tax credit, additional state tax credits and utility rebates ranging from hundreds to thousands of dollars per each new EV charging port.
Level 2 is ideal for dwell times of 1+ hours (e.g., in residential, workplace or shopping environments). DC fast charging is for high-speed, high-cost public charging in under 1 hour. Most workplaces use Level 2 charging.
For public or shared use, yes. Networked EV charging stations offer a wide range of benefits such as remote monitoring, data reporting and management of access and pricing policies. Networked chargers also enable usage tracking, payments and load management.
The 30C Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit is a federal tax credit worth 30% of the cost of installing electric vehicle charging equipment (up to $100,000). It’s available for businesses and commercial property owners that install EV charging stations in a qualified location and with prevailing wage and apprenticeship requirements.

Assess your workplace’s electrical infrastructure to determine the number and types of charging stations that can be supported without upgrades. Consider solutions like power sharing to optimize existing infrastructure and potentially avoid costly upgrades.
To deter employees from leaving their cars plugged in for extended periods, some workplaces charge idle fees (e.g., per minute or per hour) after the initial charging limit or when the battery reaches full capacity. Most workplaces recommend a 2-4 hour maximum for Level 2 chargers, which typically provide a full charge for most daily commutes within that timeframe.
EV charging stations are a smart investment—and they could pay off even more with rebates and other incentives for commercial charger installations.
