Hey everyone,
If you live in LA City and bought a NEW OR USED Tesla at ANY point (even if it wasn't recently), and you use LADWP as your electric company, you are entitled to $500 toward a Tesla HPWC wall connector. They retail for $500 plus tax, so it'll just cost you the tax or about $45. NOT BAD!
Here's how it works:
Go to ladwp.com/ev
Click on: Residential EV Charger Rebate Program
Apply!
Further details are below -- expires June 30, 2018 so you have to ACT FAST!!! We have 2 2017 Teslas's, and got TWO rebates. See attached for our installation.
If you need an exceptional (and CHEAP) installer, contact Oran's Electric -- perfect Yelp reviews, 1.3 of the Tesla authorized price, and has friends at DWP who fast-track it. Tell him his customer in Brentwood with 2 Teslas's in the condo garage sent you. Photos of his handiwork (with our free chargers in a condo garage using DWP time of use metering) attached!
You're welcome!!!
LADWP introduced the Electric Vehicle Charger Rebate Program, “Charge Up L.A.!” to encourage the installation of convenient electric vehicle (EV) charging stations at residential and commercial locations in order to support the purchase and use of EVs. This program will benefit the environment and help EV users save on fuel costs at the same time. The rebate is offered to residential customers who purchase or lease a qualifying, new or used EV and install a qualifying Level 2 charger at their home.
Residential customers can receive a rebate of up to $500 toward their out-of-pocket expenses for an EV charger. The rebate does not cover the cost of installation. Customers who choose to install an optional dedicated time-of-use (TOU) meter will qualify for the LADWP’s EV discount of 2.5 cents per kilowatt-hour (kWh), plus receive an additional $250 bonus. This dedicated service will add additional cost to the installation process but will yield lower electricity costs for off peak charging.

Make sure that the address associated with the vehicle per Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) registration records, the installation address of the EV charger, and the address of the associated electric service is the same. You should also determine whether or not you would like to receive the EV discount rate, which requires requesting that the LADWP install a dedicated TOU meter.
How to Apply
Step 1: EV Discount Rate
To receive the EV discount of 2.5 cents per kWh, you will need to have a dedicated EV TOU meter for your charger. The first step is to contact the LADWP to request this service. To begin the meter installation process, please submit an EV Charging Station Request Form online.
Step 2: Residential EV Charger Rebate
If you choose not to have a dedicated EV service, then simply hire a licensed contractor and have the charger installed under an approved permit issued by the LADBS. For detailed program qualifications and guidelines and to apply, please download, complete, and submit the Residential EV Charger Rebate Application. Call 1-866-484-0433 if you have questions or need an application mailed to you. Review the application, including the terms and conditions, to confirm your eligibility and don't forget to include your signature and the date.

This is a limited-time program to assist EV owners with their charger costs. Rebate terms and conditions are subject to change at any time. The program is set to expire on June 30, 2018, or when funds are exhausted, whichever comes first.
