North Carolina EV Charger Rebates & Incentives
Every home EV charger rebate available to North Carolina drivers in 2026.
Federal 30C Credit — Expired
The federal Alternative Fuel Refueling Property Credit (30% of cost up to $1,000 for a home charger) expired June 30, 2026. Chargers installed after that date no longer qualify, and the credit had only ever applied to homes in eligible low-income or non-urban census tracts.
- ✅ North Carolina utility rebates and EV charging rates (below) still apply
- ✅ Home charging still saves far more than gas or public charging
- ✕ No 30C federal credit for chargers placed in service after June 30, 2026
North Carolina Utility Programs
