What is the San Joaquin Valley Incentive Project?

Funded by the California Energy Commission and implemented by the Center for Sustainable Energy (CSE), the San Joaquin Valley Incentive Project promotes access to electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure.

Eligible rebates include up to $70,000 per charger for DC fast charger (DCFC) installations or 75% of eligible project costs, whichever is less. The incentive for Level 2 (L2) chargers is $3,500/connector, with an additional $1,000/connector for multi-unit dwelling sites.

For sites located in disadvantaged communities (DAC), applicants are eligible for up to $80,000 per DCFC, or 80% of eligible project costs, whichever is less. The incentive for L2 chargers within a DAC area is $4,000/connector, with an additional $1,000/connector for multi-unit dwelling sites.

Final rebate amounts are determined by the total eligible project costs.
