To support adoption of electric vehicles by reducing infrastructure costs, an EVSE voucher enhancement of up to $30,000 per vehicle voucher is available. Vouchers are approved on a case-by-case basis.

Effective August 15, 2019, EVSE voucher enhancements must be requested within 60 days of the submittal of corresponding vehicle voucher requests. Have you requested a vehicle voucher more than 60 days ago and still intend to request an EVSE enhancement, but haven’t yet? The deadline to do so is August 31, 2019. Please note that EVSE enhancement requests cannot be submitted if the corresponding vehicle voucher requests are on the HVIP waitlist.

• The EVSE Voucher Enhancement can be applied to hardware costs, load management software for smart charging, and energy storage
• The voucher enhancement does not cover labor or utility upgrade costs
• This voucher enhancement can be combined with any other funding source, not to exceed 100% of total capital cost. 
• The voucher enhancement is available for accompanying vehicle vouchers requested on or after December 15, 2017, for which associated infrastructure has not yet been purchased. 
• In the case of multiple vehicle voucher requests at the same location — that is owned / controlled by the fleet — associated EVSE voucher enhancements could be combined to cover an overall EVSE equipment budget.
• After submitting your request, you will be asked to supply 1) copy of purchase invoice and 2) list of other sources of public funding, to ensure HVIP is not co-funding beyond the real costs of the qualifying EVSE, load management software, and energy storage.

1. Either the vehicle end-user or the vehicle dealer can request and redeem EVSE Infrastructure vouchers and be reimbursed
