Pacific Power and your EV charger

The Department of Energy lists 1 EV program for Pacific Power. We have not yet read its terms first-hand, so no amount is shown — only what the federal listing names.

Federal listing checked 2026-08-25

Pacific Power pays for other work, but not for a charger

Each of these is money Pacific Power publishes with a condition attached, and the condition is the part that decides whether the figure is available to you at all. None of it is charger money. Nothing here is added to the amounts above, or to each other.

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 Any quote or article that nets a federal credit against your cost today is out of date — which is most of them.
