About

To encourage the development of MHD vehicle charging infrastructure, we are offering incentives that can cover up to 90% of eligible make-ready costs for qualifying sites.

What’s Eligible

Eligible utility-side make-ready costs include traditional distribution infrastructure, such as step-down transformers and overhead service lines.

Eligible customer-side make-ready costs include meter pan and wiring, step-up transformer, electric panel upgrades, wiring, and eligible soft costs.

Incentives

Sites must receive or plan to receive electric service from Con Edison and provide charging for vehicles over 10,000 lbs GVWR. Your site’s location relative to a disadvantaged community and whether your site is private, public, or shared between two or more fleets will impact incentive amounts.

All qualifying public charging stations are eligible for customer-side incentives. Qualifying private charging stations located within 2 miles of a Disadvantaged Community (DAC) are also eligible for customer-side incentives.

Con Edison will cover up to 90% of utility-side costs for any eligible project.

*Sites that are partially within a DAC will be incentivized as Tier 1 (DAC sites) and are eligible for up to 90% of utility-side costs and up to 90% of customer-side costs. Sites that are adjacent to a DAC will be incentivized as Tier 2 (within 2 miles of a DAC) and are eligible for up to 90% of utility-side costs and up to 50% of customer-side costs.

Please note that the incentive eligibility tier determines the maximum incentive amount a project is eligible for; actual incentive payments are calculated in the Program Agreement stage, after a service ruling is completed. Calculations consider eligibility tier, total site costs, program budgets, and other factors, as determined by the program team.
