There are many rebates and tax incentives available for purchasing and installing a Level 2 EV charging station in your home. These incentives vary by utility and state. We wanted to put together a consolidated list of the rebates and tax credits that we are aware of in the US to help you save as much as possible on your home EV charging setup! Some of these rebates cover your Level 2 home EV charger (EVSE) costs and many of them also cover installation/the Smart Splitter.

In many cases, the cost of the Smart Splitter can be categorized under the installation savings you get from these rebates, which means you can get the cost of the Smart Splitter covered! Be sure to read the terms and conditions and apply on the website provided to get more details on what is covered for each rebate.

Note: Utilities (SMUD, CCCE, Tacoma Power, etc.) that offer specific rebates on the Smart Splitter are marked in ORANGE. Some of these utilities will completely cover the cost of a Smart Splitter, making it 

240V Smart Splitter for dual EV charging at home. Great to pair with your Level 2 EVSE like a Wallbox Pulsar Plus, Chargepoint Home, or even the Tesla Mobile Connector that comes with your electric car.

There is also a Federal Tax Credit for EV Chargers that has been extended through 12/31/2032. This tax credit covers 30% (up to $1,000 per unit) of the cost for individual/residential use. For more details see the latest IRA bill updates.
