Other EV Incentives Offered in Hawaii
There may be post-purchase EV incentives available in Hawaii, depending on available funds. The relevant initiatives include:
- Hawaii Energy offers thousands of dollars in rebates to businesses installing networked EV charging hardware. While this program has a primarily commercial focus, individuals are included among the list of potential applicants to be considered.
