how it works

HOW IT WORKS

Through our Community Charging Program, we’re teaming up with businesses, multi-family properties, non-profits, and municipalities to make installing EV charging easier. For eligible projects, we’ll design and build the electric infrastructure from the power grid to the charging station. Projects supporting equitable charging access may also be eligible for DLC charging station rebates. Read our Community Charging Program Guide to learn more about how the program works.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What are key customer requirements for participating in the program?

While Duquesne Light will build the electric infrastructure from the power grid to the charging station, you must purchase and install charging stations selected from a qualified vendor list. Construction can begin only after you provide an easement to the property. Additional program requirements are described in the Community Charging Program Guide.

Can customers participate in this program and still receive grants or rebates from other sources?

The Community Charging Program can reduce your charging station installation costs significantly and current state and federal funding can make a project even more attractive. We’ll help you identify and apply for additional funding opportunities that you may be eligible for.

What happens after you contact an EV Specialist?

They will reach out to you directly to discuss your project, walk you through the program application, and guide you through gathering the necessary information to submit your application. After submission, DLC will review your application to identify if your proposed project meets all program requirements.  After an application is approved, we’ll work with you to create a detailed site design and schedule construction.
