Try this on for size: never worrying about gas prices again, charging your tank while you sleep and skipping out on oil changes. Sounds nice, right? Home EV charger incentives also include a 30% federal tax credit (up to $1,000 for residential installations). Learn more about this credit from the U.S Department of Energy.
Electric vehicles emit no harmful gases to our atmosphere, and now have the same range as a full tank of gas. All major automotive companies are investing in electric cars, and many have committed to entirely electric fleets soon. The constantly fluctuating oil market is reason enough to quit the gasoline game and join the “fill up” at home crew.
Have a solar energy system? Even better. The benefits are doubly exciting when you charge your electric vehicle with solar energy: you reduce your carbon footprint almost entirely by powering it with clean energy (vs. fossil-fueled grid power) and you save on that energy.
