One of the biggest hurdles new electric car buyers face is how they will they top up their electric car between drives. While Washington ranks #6 in the US for the number of publicly available EV Chargers, the convenience of being able to charge your electric car at home is hard to beat. These chargers can cost quite a bit 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.
Yes, Puget Sound Energy has a rebate program that may provide an incentive if you install a charger for an electric vehicle in a residential application. The program is called "PSE Up and Go Electric for Home Charging Program."

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.
Some of these programs 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.
