Yes, several states, including Florida, offer incentives for installing home EV charging stations. These incentives range from utility rebates to federal tax credits. Here are some examples:
Incentives in Florida
- Florida Power & Light (FPL): The Evolution Home program provides residential customers with electrical upgrades and a Level 2 EV charger for a flat monthly fee. This includes make-ready costs and charger installation and maintenance.
- Jacksonville Electric Authority (JEA): Offers up to $300 for pre-wiring necessary to support a Level 2 EV charger.
- Kissimmee Utility Authority (KUA): Provides rebates of $100 for the purchase and installation of a Level 2 EV charger.
Federal Incentives
- Federal EV Charger Tax Credit: Under the Inflation Reduction Act, homeowners can claim a 30% tax credit on the cost of installing a home EV charger, up to $1,000. This is available for chargers installed from 2023 to 2032. However, it is specifically available to those in rural or low-income areas.
Many utility companies and state governments offer similar incentives, so it’s worth checking local programs for more information. The DSIRE database is a useful resource to find incentives based on your zip code.
