• 30% of total installation cost

For the IRS, “placed in service” means:
• Fully installed
• Functional
• Inspected
• Energized
• Ready for use
Not simply purchased.

Typical timelines:
• Planning/design: 60–90 days
• Equipment lead time: 30–90 days
• Installation: weeks to months
• Utility approval: unpredictable
Translation: If you start late, you may miss the credit entirely. Start now.

A $100,000 EV charging install might get:
• $30,000 federal credit
• $10,000–$50,000 in state incentives
• $5,000–$40,000 in utility rebates
• Significant depreciation write-offs
Net cost could drop to $20,000–$40,000.
Multiple sites = multiple $30k credits.
