How much does EV charger installation cost in Alsip?

Installation costs typically range from $1,200 to $2,500 depending on your home’s electrical setup and charger location. Simple installations with existing 240-volt capacity cost less, while homes needing panel upgrades or long wire runs cost more. The good news is ComEd offers rebates up to $3,750 that can cover most or all of your installation cost. Federal tax credits provide an additional 30% back up to $1,000. Many Alsip homeowners end up paying very little out of pocket. We provide free estimates so you know exactly what your project will cost before we start. We’ll also help you understand which rebates you qualify for and handle the application paperwork.
It depends on your current electrical panel capacity and age. Most EV chargers require a dedicated 40-50 amp circuit, which needs available space in your panel and sufficient overall capacity. Homes built before 1990 with 100-amp panels often need upgrades to 200-amp service. Newer homes with 200-amp panels typically have enough capacity but may need additional circuit breaker space. We’ll assess your panel during our site visit and explain any upgrades needed. Panel upgrade costs are often covered by ComEd rebates, especially for eligible customers in equity communities.
Most installations take 4-6 hours once we have permits and materials. Simple plug-in installations with existing circuits can be completed in 2-3 hours. Complex installations requiring panel upgrades may take a full day. The permit process adds 1-2 weeks to the timeline, but we handle all paperwork and scheduling. We’ll coordinate with the Alsip building department and schedule inspections as required. Weather and material availability can affect timing, but we’ll keep you informed throughout the process. We schedule installations to minimize disruption to your daily routine.
ComEd offers rebates up to $3,750 for eligible customers, with higher amounts for low-income households and equity communities. The rebate covers both equipment and installation costs for Level 2 chargers. Federal tax credits provide 30% of total project cost back, up to $1,000. This includes both the charger and installation labor. You can claim this credit on your federal tax return. Illinois also offers various utility rebates and the state EV rebate program provides up to $4,000 for vehicle purchases. We help you navigate all available programs to maximize your savings.
No, Illinois requires EV charger installers to have specific certification from the Illinois Commerce Commission. This ensures installers understand EV-specific electrical requirements and safety protocols. We maintain ICC certification for EV charger installation and stay current on changing regulations. Our technicians receive ongoing training on new charger models and installation techniques. Choosing a non-certified installer can void warranties, create safety hazards, and disqualify you from rebate programs. Always verify your installer’s ICC certification before hiring them.
Level 2 chargers typically add 25-40 miles of range per hour of charging, depending on your vehicle and charger capacity. Most electric vehicles charge completely overnight from a nearly empty battery. This is 6-8 times faster than plugging into a standard 120-volt outlet, which only adds 3-5 miles per hour. For daily driving, overnight charging easily covers most people’s needs. Larger battery vehicles like electric trucks may take longer to charge completely, but still charge much faster than Level 1. We’ll recommend the right charger capacity based on your vehicle and driving patterns.
