About

The Charger Install Guide is a project of New Mobility Lab, which covers mobility, EV and transport tech, with a Chicagoland focus.

Home charging is where a lot of EV ownership starts, and it's where people get the most confusing quotes. This site answers three questions: what drives the cost, what your panel can handle, and which rebates actually apply where you live.

How we work

Every number links to its source, with the date we checked it.
If we can't verify something, we say so instead of guessing.
We add one page at a time, starting in Illinois.
We're not electricians. Always get a licensed electrician and a permit.
