There are several rebates available for EV charger installations in Canada. Depending on where you live, you can get access to federal or provincial or a combination of both. Rebates are a great way to incentivize the public to switch to electric mobility. However, rebates will not be offered forever and require quite an effort to apply for them. JPlug.io service offers a more holistic approach that lets you get an EV charger installation whether or not you have access to a rebate program.
One of the most well-known rebates is the Federal Rebate for Zero-Emission Vehicles Infrastructure Program (ZEVIP). ZEVIP provides up to 50% of the total cost of installing Level 2 charging stations, to a maximum of $5,000 per station. To be eligible, you must be an individual, business, or organization that owns or manages a property where EV charging is needed. For example; multi-unit residential buildings, condominiums, apartment buildings, or workplace.
In addition to the federal rebate, there are also various provincial and municipal rebates available. For example, in British Columbia, there is the CleanBC Go Electric EV Charger Rebate Program, which provides up to $14,000 per Level 2 charging station for eligible businesses and multi-unit residential buildings. In Ontario, there is the Electric Vehicle Charging Incentive Program, which provides up to 50% of the cost of a Level 2 charging station, to a maximum of $5,000 per station.
