EV & Renewable FAQ
Do I need a panel upgrade for a Level-2 charger?
Not always. Homes with open breaker spaces and at least 150 A service often qualify. We perform a NEC 220 load calculation and present options.
What rebates are available as of 2025?
Consumers Energy offers $500 per residential charger plus up to $2,000 for service upgrades tied to EV adoption; DTE offers $1,000 for smart chargers. Commercial incentives can exceed $70,000 per site.
Can you integrate solar later?
Yes. We can install a PV-ready breaker position, rapid-shutdown conduit, and a critical-load sub-panel now so adding solar is plug-and-play later.
Do I need Wi-Fi for a smart charger?
Most utility-approved chargers require an internet connection for demand-response programs. We test signal strength and can install a Wi-Fi range extender if needed.
