Electric Vehicle Charger

TEP residential customers who purchase a networked* Level 2 electric vehicle (EV) charger can claim a rebate that covers 75% of the initial purchase cost (before tax), up to $500.

The rebate will be issued as a credit on the customer's TEP account. A maximum of two incentives are allowed per premise for each charger purchased for home use with a highway-approved battery electric vehicle or plug-in hybrid electric vehicle.

Program Requirements:

To qualify for the TEP rebate, residents must:

• Purchase a new Level 2 or higher networked* EV charger and submit the application within 60 days of the initial purchase date.
  • Tesla Mobile Connector, Rivian Portable Charger, WebGo Dual Volt, and other mobile, portable, and dual volt chargers are not eligible. 
  • Rebates are not offered on used, resold or refurbished chargers. 
• Provide a valid proof of purchase, from a local retailer, the TEP Marketplace* or an online retailer (not to include eBay or other resale sites) that ships the item to the customer’s service address in TEP’s territory.
• Submit a photo of the serial number on the device itself.
• Be on an active Time-of-Use (TOU) rate plan and remain on the plan for a minimum of two years.
• Charger must have ongoing and stable connection to the internet.
• Install the eligible EV charger at their TEP service address. 

Please refer to the Residential EV Charger Checklist for a step-by-step guide to ensure your home is adequately prepared for an EV charger installation.

To inquire about the eligibility of EV Chargers not listed on our EV Charger Rebate informational page (link back to new updated page here), or for any other questions or concerns, please contact us at EVResidential@tep.com.

*Networked refers to any electric vehicle charger that can connect remotely to a larger network via the internet. Look for “Smart charger” or “Wi-Fi enabled” tags in the EV charger description or spec sheet before purchasing. A networked EV charger allows the EV driver, the utility (or a third party) to connect to the charger to manage charging.

*If you purchased the EV charger on the TEP Marketplace and you did not receive the instant rebate, you can submit the rebate application for a credit on your account. For customers who received the instant rebate on the TEP Marketplace, you do not need to submit a rebate application.  

NOTE: Customer with net metering Rider 4 who meet the requirements for a level 2 networked EV charger must transition to Net Metering Time-of-Use (TOU) rate plan. Please contact the Customer Care Center at tepcustomercare@tep.com to modify your rate.

NOTE: Customers switching to or enrolling in an EV specific TOU rate plan must submit proof of EV registration.

Customers agree to allow a TEP representative to conduct a site visit to verify that the Program Requirements have been met.  

Rebate applications must be submitted within 60 days of the initial purchase date to be considered. Incentives are subject to the availability of funding.
