COMED'S $2,500 EV CHARGER REBATE FOR 2026: COMPLETE GUIDE FOR NORTH SHORE HOMEOWNERS

If you've been putting off installing a home EV charger, 2026 may be the best year to act. ComEd announced approximately $70 million in EV rebates for 2026, and residential customers who install a Level 2 charger can claim up to $2,500 to cover equipment and installation costs.

What the ComEd Rebate Covers

The residential rebate applies to Level 2 EV charger installations completed on or after January 1, 2026. It covers both the cost of the charging equipment itself and the professional installation labor.

Why ICC Certification Matters for Your Rebate

ICC certification ensures your installer meets the highest national standards for code compliance. When you work with an ICC-certified contractor like Abvolt, your installation is guaranteed to meet every requirement the rebate program demands.

The Bigger Picture: $70 Million Across All Programs

ComEd's 2026 EV investment goes well beyond residential chargers. The Business and Public Sector program offers more than $35 million for fleet EV purchases. The Make-Ready Rebate Program has over $29 million for site preparation costs.

How to Maximize Your Savings

Stack the ComEd rebate with other available incentives. The federal tax credit for EV charger installations (Section 30C) can provide up to $1,000 for residential installations. Between ComEd, federal credits, and manufacturer promotions, the net cost can drop below $1,000 in many cases.

Don't Wait — Funding Is Limited

ComEd's residential rebate pool is finite. Once the allocated funding is claimed, the program closes for the year. The smartest move is to schedule your installation now, while the full $2,500 is still available.
