Get Fast and Convenient EV Charging at Home
Install an EV charging station and receive up to $1,500
Burbank residents may be eligible to receive a rebate for the purchase and installation of up to two charging stations.
Who’s Eligible for the Program?
The program is open to all BWP residential customers, including tenants and residents of single and multi-family residences.
Multi-Family building owners who install charging stations for their tenants need to apply for a Commercial EV Charging Station Rebate.
Rebate Amounts Breakdown
Rebate amounts vary depending on the type of charger installed, whether a panel upgrade is required, and whether the charger is installed in a disadvantaged community (DAC). See below for breakdown of rebates.
Rebates for Standard Chargers
| Charger Rebate | Panel Upgrade Rebate | |
| Residential Customer | $200 | Additional $750 |
| DAC Customer | $300 | Additional $900 |
Rebates for Smart Chargers
| Charger Rebate | Panel Upgrade Rebate | |
| Residential Customer | $500 | Additional $750 |
| DAC Customer | $600 | Additional $900 |
You cannot claim a panel upgrade rebate without receiving a rebate for an EV charging station.
Follow These Steps To Install a Charging Station and Apply For a Rebate
Hire a Licensed Electrician
Contact BWP if You Need a New Panel
If your electrician determines that your residence needs a new panel, you (or your electrician) should contact BWP’s Service Planning at (818) 238-3575 as soon as possible. BWP will inspect the electric infrastructure serving your residence to evaluate if an upgrade is also required.
Purchase the Charging Station
Install the Charging Station, Panel, and Circuit
Have your licensed electrician install the charging station and any panel/circuit upgrades needed. Make sure your electrician obtains all required permits and that your installation passes inspection from Burbank’s Building & Safety Division. You will have to submit the permits as part of your rebate application.
Note: If you live in a multi-family residence, you may have to work with your building management, owner, or Homeowners’ Association (HOA) to install charging stations. BWP offers commercial rebates for multi-family residences to assist with installing charging stations.
In some cases, individual charging stations cannot be connected to your home meter. A commercial electric infrastructure upgrade may also be needed for your building. In these cases, your building management or HOA may need to manage the charging station installation.
