In this guide, we explore Mississippi’s EV tax credits, rebates, and incentives, highlighting how these initiatives can help residents make the switch to electrified transportation.

Mississippi EV Rebate

As of 2026, Mississippi does not have a state-wide EV rebate, and utilities do not currently offer EV rebate programs.

Charging your EV at home is both affordable and convenient. To achieve the best charging speed with your residential electrical infrastructure, it is essential to install a Level 2 EV charger with the help of a qualified EV charger installation professional.

Mississippi EV Charger Tax Credits

As of 2026, Mississippi does not have a state-wide tax credit for EV chargers.

There is one utility in Mississippi that currently offers EV charger rebates:

Mississippi Power EV Charger Rebate

Mississippi Power has an online marketplace with instant rebates on Level 2 EV chargers, including hardwired and plug-in models. The amount of the rebate varies based on the product you select.

You’ll likely get an advantageous electric rate when charging your EV at home, given that Mississippi utilities charge $0.1616 per kWh on average.

To further help EV owners reduce charging costs by encouraging off-peak charging, utilities in Mississippi offer time-of-use (TOU) electricity rates designed to lower the cost of charging EVs.

These TOU plans incentivize vehicle charging during off-peak hours, making EV ownership more affordable.

Coast Electric Power Association

The Coast Electric Power Association can help you save by reducing your electricity usage between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m. in the summer and 6 a.m. to 8 a.m. in the winter. During these on-peak hours, you’ll pay $0.35 per kWh. To make up for this higher rate, you’ll only pay $0.04 per kWh of electricity you use outside of these hours.

Southern Pine Electric Power Association

Southern Pine Electric Power offers time-of-use electricity rates of $0.18 per on-peak kWh and $0.06 per off-peak kWh. In the summer, you’ll get the on-peak rate from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. In the winter, you’ll pay more between 6 a.m. and 8 a.m. and again from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.

The Mississippi Department of Transportation is working on adding charging stations along several major highways, including I-22, I-55, I-59, I-10, and I-69. These alternative fuels corridors will make the state more EV friendly.

Combining EV ownership with other electrification projects, such as upgrading your home with solar panels & battery storage, or investing in a heat pump, will help you save even more while reducing your environmental impact.

You may qualify for home electrification incentives through your local electricity provider.
