The PSE&G Clean Energy Future – Electric Vehicle Program, approved by the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (NJBPU) in January 2021, is designed to facilitate EV adoption across a broad range of customers and segments by investing in the development of smart charging infrastructure.

Investments through the EV program will offset the cost of preparing sites for EV charging, or make ready work. This includes both the cost of utility service line upgrades/extensions as well as onsite costs to install panels, switchgears, conduits and wires to the charger stub. Customers are responsible for the cost of EV chargers

PSE&G is developing the necessary IT infrastructure and customer agreement forms to set forth the terms and conditions of the program, and anticipates a full launch in fall of 2021. In the interim, interested customers can sign up to receive alerts on the status of the program and the opening of enrolment by contacting the program email address below.

No. PSE&G’s program provides help with the cost to install the chargers, including costs for the service line extension/upgrade and cost to make a site charger ready. 

Customers’ applications will be evaluated on case by case basis to determine the maximum allowable incentive based on several factors including the number of chargers installed and the actual costs incurred.

The off-peak charging credit and demand charge rebate will be issued on bill on a monthly basis, as long as EV data is being shared as requested in a timely manner.

All customers are highly encouraged to utilize My Account to facilitate the application process. Alternatively, if a customer doesn’t have a My Account, they can use Account Number/Zip Code. Commercial customers may also apply through their Customer Support Specialist.

All rebates will be visible on both My Account and the customers’ paper bill.
