What to use instead
PG&E's EV Power Ready (Rule 29) still covers the utility-side construction to your meter for new, separately metered charging; you pay a $3,500 engineering advance plus the chargers and customer-side work. In most of PG&E territory, your CCA's rebate is now the main cash layer. Full list: PG&E utility guide.

How this stacks with other programs
Utility programs typically stack with utility, regional (air district), state, and city/county programs on the same project. The general California stacking rules:
- Federal §30C tax credit: ended for chargers placed in service after June 30, 2026. Projects placed in service on or before that date may still claim it; new projects should plan without it.
- Federal grants (CFI, REAP, NEVI): not stackable with other federal grants on the same port.
- State + utility + regional + local: generally full stack across tiers. Same-tier programs serving the same port don't double-fund.
For the full stacking matrix, see the homepage stacking section.
