The electric automotive is here, and it's flourishing. You've got an EV and are ready to get on the road. After a long day, you arrive home, and there's no way to charge your EV. We understand Grand Rapids drivers' frustration, not knowing, or understanding what qualifies them for an at-home charger. Let's talk about the qualifications and requirements for a Home Charger, as well as the incentives that come along with it.

Charging Requirements for EV Drivers in Wyoming, MI

The most common charger used in Holland homes is a level 2 charger. With this charger, nearly every electric vehicle can fully charge overnight. However, your home must meet the National Electrical Code requirement, which is having an electric circuit to output 25% more total amps than the output of your charger. Level 2 chargers have an output of 40 amps, so Allendale drivers will need a circuit breaker that can withstand at least 50 total amps.

Incentives of At-Home Charging in Grandville

Having your own charger is great, but what perks come with owning a level 2 charger? Multiple incentives come with owning an at-home charger, and we'll tell you what they are. EV owners/leasers can receive $500 off their level 2 charger installation cost, and up to $120 in incentives. Once your charger is installed, you can apply for the PowerMIDrive™ Smart Charging Incentive, which allows you to earn $10 monthly for 12 months when you charge your EV overnight and on the weekend.
