Conditions are quoted from each program’s own published terms as we read them on the date shown. Meeting them is what makes an application eligible; it is not an approval, and a utility can apply requirements it does not publish.
Not in the federal directory
The Department of Energy’s Alternative Fuels Data Center does not carry a listing for Portland General Electric Company. That is a gap in the federal directory rather than a statement about this utility — what appears above was read directly from the utility’s own published material.
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 Any quote or article that nets a federal credit against your cost today is out of date — which is most of them.
