Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment Rebate Program

​​ATTENTION: THE FY17 EVSE REBATE PROGRAM IS NOW OPEN.

MEA is working with Marylanders to expand the State's growing electric vehicle recharging infrastructure through the Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment Rebate Program.

Through the program, residents, governments and businesses can acquire a state rebate for purchasing and installing an electric vehicle charging station, known as Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE). In order to receive these rebates, eligible participants must apply with MEA, which will issue rebates on a first-c​ome, first-served basis.

The EVSE Rebate Program is for systems purchased and installed on or after July 1, 2014, but before June 30, 2017.
