Unlock EV Charging Tax Credits for Commercial Properties in 2025

As electric vehicles (EVs) continue to drive the future of transportation, the U.S. government is offering substantial tax credits to support the installation of EV charging stations. The Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit (26 USC 30C) provides 30% off installation costs, up to $100,000 per property. At PlugOp, we’re making it even easier for you to take advantage of this program with our EV Readiness Calculator.

What is the Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit (26 USC 30C)?

The Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit is a federal incentive designed to reduce the costs of EV charger installation for businesses and property developers. This credit makes EV infrastructure more accessible and accelerates the adoption of sustainable transportation solutions.

Key Facts:

• Eligibility: Available for commercial developers, including multi-family housing and mixed-use developments.

• Tax Savings: Covers 30% of installation costs, up to $100,000 per property.

• Included Costs: Applies to EV chargers, electrical wiring, and supporting equipment necessary for operation.

This credit provides an opportunity for developers to save significantly while enhancing the appeal and value of their properties.

Benefits of the EV Charging Tax Credit for Developers

1. Lower Installation Costs

Installing EV charging stations can be a significant expense, but this credit reduces the up-front investment by as much as 30%. For example: A $200,000 EV charger project may qualify for the maximum $100,000 tax credit.

2. Boost Tenant and Customer Appeal

Properties with EV chargers are more attractive to eco-conscious tenants and customers, creating a competitive advantage.

3. Align with Local Regulations

Many states and municipalities now require EV-ready or EV-installed spaces for new developments. This tax credit can offset the costs of complying with such mandates.
