An EV charger can cost $300 - $1,000 depending on the specific model and features you want.

The installation cost will vary for each home, but a good rule of thumb is that it costs at least at much as the charger.
This rebate program will only provide rebates for specific make and models of chargers. Make sure to read all the program documentation before making any commitment to purchasing a charger.
