⚠️ The federal clean-energy tax credits were rolled back in 2026 (solar/battery credits ended Dec 31, 2025; the EV-charger credit June 30, 2026). State & utility rebates are now the main savings.

South Dakota EV Charger Rebates & Incentives

Every home EV charger rebate available to South Dakota 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.

  • South Dakota 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
Varies by Utility
