Act Fast: Federal EV & Solar Tax Incentives Ending Soon—What Charlotte Drivers Need to Know
By ChargeNetCity | Updated August 2025
If you’ve been considering going electric or installing solar, now is the time—because key federal incentives for EVs, solar, and home charging are expiring soon.
What’s Vanishing (and When)
EV Purchase Tax Credit: Up to $7,500 for new EVs and $4,000 for used EVs. Ends September 30, 2025.
Home EV Charging Credit: Covers 30% of installation costs, up to $1,000. Expires June 30, 2026.
Residential Solar ITC (30%): Applies to solar and battery systems. Deadlines: installed and active by December 31, 2025 to qualify.
Why It Matters—Now
These incentives dramatically reduce your upfront costs and your ROI timelines:
The EV credit alone can drop your vehicle price by several thousand dollars.
Installing solar now could yield ~30% in savings and help offset EV charging costs for years to come.
Once expired, these credits won’t return soon—California’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” removed the eligibility for systems placed after 2025.
What You Can Do Today
Act on EV or Used EV Purchases by September 30 before the credit vanishes.
Plan Solar + EV Charger Installs to make 2025 the year you lock in maximum federal rebates.
