A Comprehensive Guide To New Hampshire EV Rebates, Tax Credits and Incentives

New Hampshire does not currently offer a state-level EV rebate.

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.

Does New Hampshire Have EV Charger Tax Credits?

No, as of July 2026, New Hampshire does not have a state-wide tax credit for EV chargers, and two federal programs, the Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit and the 30C commercial charging tax credit, both expired on June 30, 2026.

One utility in New Hampshire offers EV charger rebate programs:

New Hampshire Electric Cooperative EV Charger Rebates

Residential customers can receive a rebate of $300 to help pay for a Level 2 charger. To qualify, you’ll need to install a separate meter for your EV charging and sign up for the cooperative’s EV charging rate, which will help you save even more on top of this great incentive.

Commercial customers are eligible for rebates, too. Under NHEC’s Commercial & Municipal Energy Savings Program, the utility will cover up to 75% of your Level 2 commercial EV charging project, with a cap of $2,500 per charging station and $5,000 per property to help pay for two stations.

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

New Hampshire has some of the highest average residential electricity rates in the U.S., making off‑peak EV charging programs especially valuable for reducing charging costs.

Eversource

Eversource offers two optional time-of-use programs for residential customers.

The first rate allows you to pay as little as $0.03 per kWh during off-peak hours between 8 p.m. and 7 a.m. and $0.21 per kWh during the on-peak hours outside of this time.

The second rate comes with a slightly higher off-peak rate of $0.06 per kWh, from 7 p.m. to 1 p.m. the next day, and an on-peak rate of $0.19 per kWh.

Liberty Utilities

Liberty Utilities offers a time-of-use rate explicitly designed for EV owners. Charging between 8 p.m. and 8 a.m. will cost you $0.18 per kWh. During the day, your rate will increase to $0.25 per kWh from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. and peak at $0.56 per kWh during critical hours, which last from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m.

New Hampshire Electric Cooperative

The New Hampshire Electric Cooperative offers two optional time-of-use rates. Both follow similar pricing schedules, with an on-peak price of $0.21 per kWh and an off-peak rate of $0.11 per kWh.

Under the utility’s whole-house time-of-day rate, the on-peak rate is effective from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. If you opt for the utility’s EV rate, you’ll pay the on-peak price from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. and save at night. For this program, you’ll need a separate meter.

Unitil

With Unitil, you can save on EV charging by enrolling in a whole-house time-of-use rate or opting for an EV-only rate with a separate meter. Both rates follow the same schedule and have the same pricing model.

The highest you’ll ever pay is $0.28 per kWh between 3 p.m. and 8 p.m. Your rate will drop to $0.11 per kWh from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. and be at its lowest between 8 p.m. and 6 a.m., at $0.09 per kWh.
