Federal EV Charger Tax Credit (Form 8911)

California offers multiple rebates depending on your utility provider. Southern California Edison (SCE) offers the Charge Ready Home program, while LADWP offers the EV Charger Incentive Program. You typically need to submit your final permit, paid invoice, and proof of charger purchase. GridReady Pros provides all necessary documentation to ensure your rebate is approved.

Yes, the Section 30C Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit is available through 2032. However, starting in 2023, the rules changed: the property must be located in an eligible low-income or non-urban census tract. If eligible, homeowners can claim 30% of the cost up to $1,000, and businesses up to $100,000 per charger.

Yes! You can "stack" incentives. For example, you can receive a $500 rebate from your local utility company (like LADWP or SCE) and still claim the 30% federal tax credit on your remaining out-of-pocket costs. This combination can offset a significant portion of your total installation expense.

To file IRS Form 8911, you need the total cost of your EV charger and installation, the date it was placed in service, and verification that your address falls within an eligible census tract. You should keep your GridReady Pros invoice and the final city permit in your tax records.
