EV Charger Installation in Denver
Denver is Xcel Energy territory, and the city keeps EV-charger permitting cheap — the electrical permit itself runs about $35, with a little more for inspection. A licensed electrician (required under the 2026 NEC and Denver Energy Code) runs the dedicated 240V circuit, pulls that permit and schedules the inspection. Most Denver installs come in around $500 to $1,200, rising to $1,500–$3,500 if your panel needs an upgrade. Xcel customers on an EV rate can also tap home-wiring rebates. The local permit cost, code notes and Xcel rebate amounts on this page were verified in June 2026 against the official Xcel Energy, City of Denver and IRS sources linked here; programs change, so confirm current eligibility before you buy.
