Alaska EV Rebates, Tax Credits and EV Incentives

Do utilities in Alaska offer EV charger rebates?
Many electric utilities across Alaska offer rebates for installing home Level 2 EV chargers, often in combination with time‑of‑use or load management programs. Rebate availability, eligibility requirements, and incentive amounts vary by utility service territory.
Here are some of the top utility rebates currently available for Alaska homeowners:
Alaska Power and Telephone EV Charger Rebate
The Alaska Power and Telephone EV charger rebate isn’t available to residents, but local and tribal governments can receive up to $1,000 to help cover the cost of installing a public EV charging station.
Chugach Electric Association EV Charger Rebate
As a Chugach Electric Association residential customer, you can claim a $200 rebate on Level 2 home chargers.
Kodiak Electric Association EV Charger Rebate
Kodiak Electric will credit you up to $500 for installing a residential EV charger within their service territory. Once the utility approves your project, you’ll receive a $500 rebate spread over the 12 months following the install.
EV Charging Rates in Alaska
At $0.24 per kWh, Alaska’s average residential electrical rate is slightly higher than the rest of the country. This is primarily due to the state’s highly fragmented and spread-out power grid, which covers vast areas.
For EV owners, charging at home remains cheaper than in public, and time-of-use (TOU) electricity rates can unlock savings. These plans incentivize vehicle charging during off-peak hours, making EV ownership more affordable.
Alaska Electric Light & Power Company
This utility offers a special rate for EV owners. Instead of paying the standard rate of $0.10 per kWh, you can set up a separate meter for your at-home charger and pay $0.05 per kWh.
Public EV Charging Stations in Alaska
Alaska’s public EV charging network is growing due to efforts from businesses, utility companies, and public agencies. For instance, the Alaska Energy Authority has used NEVI funds to install Level 2 chargers at public facilities in Anchorage.
How Many Public EV Charging Stations Are in Alaska?
As of October 2025, Alaska has 66 public EV charging stations including over 54 Level 2 and 22 DC Fast charging stations. There are 3 Tesla Supercharger stations and 20 Tesla Supercharger ports in Alaska.
The Ford BlueOval network, with around 15 locations in the Anchorage area, is another option to consider.
How Much Do Public EV Charging Stations Cost in Alaska?
Prices vary by network and location. For instance, the two DC Fast chargers owned and operated by the Grand Valley Electric Association in Fairbanks cost $0.20 per minute. If you charge at the Midas auto repair shop on East Steam Commons Avenue in Wasilla, you’ll have to pay $4 per hour.
