Minnesota Valley Electric Coop Rebates for Residential EV Chargers
Last updated: July 24, 2025
One of the biggest hurdles new electric car buyers face is how they will they top up their electric car between drives. While there are approximately 2,786 public chargers available in Minnesota, nothing can beat the convenience of plugging in your car in your garage, so it's ready to go when you leave the house. Unfortunately, these chargers can be pricey, though.
Luckily, across the US, there are rebates, grants, and incentives that might be available to help reduce your overall cost for installing an EV charger in your home.

How much does an EV charger cost?
An EV charger can cost $300 - $1,000 depending on the specific model and features you want. Unless you have a spare 240-volt outlet, you'll also have to pay for professional installation from an electrician. 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.
What EV chargers qualify for this rebate?
Some rebate programs will only provide rebates for specific make and models of chargers. Other programs will allow any reputable brand/model, as long as it meets the technical requirements (such as being a Level 2 charger). Make sure to read all the program documentation before making any commitment to purchasing a charger.
