Plug-In Electric Vehicle (PEV) and Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) Rebates

Qualified Hawaii residents, businesses, government agencies, and non-profit agencies may apply for rebates for the purchase of PEVs and EVSE through Hawaii’s EV Ready Rebate Program (Program). PEV rebates are 20% of the vehicle purchase price, up to $4,500, and are restricted to one PEV per applicant. To qualify, the PEV must be included in the list of U.S. Internal Revenue Service-approved vehicles for the Qualified Plug-in Electric Drive Motor Vehicle Credit and be purchased in Hawaii on or after August 1, 2010. EVSE rebates are 30% of the charging system cost including installation, up to $500. EVSE must be purchased on or after August 1, 2010, and installed before the rebate program ends; EVSE product and installation requirements apply. Rebates are issued on a first-come, first-served basis. The Program will continue until November 1, 2012, or until funds are exhausted. For more information, see the Program website.
