EV Charger Rebates & Incentives in New Jersey

Homeowners in New Jerseycan often stack several EV charger incentives in 2026 — the federal tax credit plus state and local utility programs. Here's every rebate we've verified for New Jersey, each with a link to the official source so you can confirm current eligibility and amounts.

Federal program

Federal EV Charger Tax Credit (Section 30C)

Federal
up to $1,000

30% of your hardware + installation cost, up to $1,000 per charging port, claimed on IRS Form 8911. Important: only homes in an eligible (non-urban or low-income) census tract qualify, and — under the July 2025 federal law — the charger must be placed in service on or before June 30, 2026. Installs after that date no longer qualify.
