Upgrade your electrical panel and install an EV charger. Power Route Electric & Plumbing handles the entire process from eligibility check to installation and rebate submission so you get the savings without the paperwork.
No obligations. Just honest pricing and expert electrical solutions for your home or business.
We begin with a detailed load calculation of your current panel to determine your home’s capacity and confirm your eligibility for all available SCE and federal programs.
The paperwork is our problem, not yours. We compile the required technical documentation and submit your application to ensure you meet all utility compliance requirements.
Albert’s team executes the physical upgrade—from 200-amp panel swaps to dedicated EV wiring—ensuring your system is safe, efficient, and built to modern standards.
We coordinate the city inspection and submit the final proof-of-work to SCE. Once the project is closed, you receive your rebate check as a bonus for modernizing your home.
Most homeowners miss out on incentives because the SCE paperwork is confusing. We take over the entire application process from the initial load calculations to the final document submission ensuring you get every dollar you’re owed.
Albert and the team have years of experience navigating the specific permitting requirements of the City of Los Angeles and surrounding municipalities. We know the local codes, and more importantly, we know the inspectors.
We don’t “guess” on your panel needs. We perform professional load calculations to ensure your home is safe for the future of electrification without over-selling you on equipment you don’t need.
The rebate is your bonus, not our hidden fee. We provide clear, upfront pricing for the installation, and we work diligently to ensure your project qualifies for the maximum available SCE and federal credits.
The Edison rebate program refers to incentives offered by Southern California Edison (SCE) that help reduce the cost of electrical upgrades needed for EV charging and home electrification. These programs primarily include Charge Ready Home for residential EV readiness and other vehicle-specific incentives.
This program helps residential customers offset the costs of installing the necessary infrastructure for faster, Level 2 charging at home.
Rebate Amount: Eligible customers can receive up to $4,200 in rebates.
Purpose: The rebate is intended to cover the costs of installing a Level 2 EV charging station, which may include electrical panel upgrades and wiring.
Focus: It is designed to make home charging more accessible, particularly for those who need to upgrade their home electrical system to support the increased load.
For customers looking to buy a used electric vehicle rather than a new one.
Rebate Amount: Qualify for up to $4,000 when purchasing or leasing a pre-owned EV.
Charge Smart Program: Earn up to $100 by participating in smart charging initiatives that help balance the electrical grid.
Replace Your Ride: A program offering up to $9,500 for customers who scrap their older, high-polluting vehicle and replace it with a hybrid or electric model.
Consumer Assistance Program: Offers up to $1,500 specifically for retiring an operational, older vehicle.
SCE provides specific Time-Of-Use (TOU) rate plans for EV owners. These plans are designed to encourage charging during off-peak hours (typically late at night or during the day when solar energy is abundant) to take advantage of significantly lower electricity prices.
The EBD program is a state-sponsored initiative (administered by the CEC) designed to advance energy equity by providing “Direct Install” energy upgrades.
No-Cost Upgrades: Unlike standard rebate programs, qualifying low-to-moderate income households receive the assessment, equipment, and installation at no cost. There is no fixed “rebate check”; instead, the program covers 100% of the project costs.
Eligible Measures: Funding covers broader electrification such as heat pump HVAC systems, heat pump water heaters, induction cooktops, and the necessary electrical wiring and service panel improvements to support them.
These programs generally apply to homeowners, and in some cases renters and multifamily property owners, provided the household meets income-eligibility requirements (typically 80% or less of the Area Median Income) or is located in a disadvantaged community.
Eligible upgrades include electrical panel upgrades, Level 2 EV charging circuits, wiring improvements, and energy-efficient electric appliances like heat pumps and induction stoves.

If your home was not designed for EV charging, you may need a panel upgrade and a dedicated circuit. Rebates can help reduce the upfront cost.

Adding EV charging can increase property value, attract long-term tenants, and prepare your units for future demand, with rebates helping offset costs.

HOAs require proper planning for load distribution, infrastructure, and permits. We handle both the design and rebate process to simplify implementation.

Commercial properties often need higher-capacity systems and may require 3-phase upgrades. Rebates can help reduce the cost of building scalable charging infrastructure.
