Plug in America’s Electric Vehicle State & Federal Incentives Guide also includes regional air quality and electric utility subsidies for buying or leasing an EV or installing a home charge station (EVSE). These regional subsidies can be significant. For example, here in California’s Central Valley the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District offers a $3,000 subsidy to buy or lease an EV. On top of the that PG&E, the local utility, offers an additional subsidy of $800 as a refund for an EVs carbon credits.
These subsidies add up. See Our Lease of a Chevy Bolt and What it Cost Us.
