- Cobb EMC’s grants provide $500–$5,000 per project for EVSE installation, allocated first-come, first-served.
- Consumer Energy (example) offers $5,000–$7,500 rebates per Level 2 station (though not Georgia-specific).
Federal and State Tax Credits
Businesses may qualify for $5,000 per charger in federal tax credits for installations.
Infrastructure-Focused Programs
Georgia Power’s Make Ready Program funds electrical infrastructure upgrades to support charging stations, reducing upfront costs for businesses.
