Hawaiian Electric Company and your EV charger

Hawaiian Electric Company does not currently offer an EV charger incentive to its Hawaii customers, according to the Department of Energy's utility directory. The federal charger credit also ended for installs after June 30, 2026, so there is no federal money to fall back on — the cost of a Level 2 install is the cost.

Federal listing checked 2026-08-25

What the federal listing says

The Department of Energy’s Alternative Fuels Data Center records no incentives currently offered by Hawaiian Electric Company for EV charging infrastructure. We checked that listing on 2026-08-25.

Utilities do add programs, and the listing is not exhaustive. If Hawaiian Electric Company has launched something since, we want to know — but we will not list an amount before reading their own terms.

Where the federal credit went

There is no federal EV charger tax credit for equipment placed in service after June 30, 2026. Section 30C was terminated by section 70504 of Public Law 119-21. Any quote or article that nets a federal credit against your cost today is out of date — which is most of them.
