What it costs to charge an EV in Raleigh
Home charging is far cheaper than gasoline. At NC's average residential electricity rate, here is what a typical EV costs to charge in Raleigh. Your exact rate depends on Duke Energy and your plan, and we set charging to the cheapest hours during installation.

|---|---|---|

Serving Raleigh, NC
In Raleigh and Wake County, part of the fast-growing Research Triangle, Charge Home Solutions installs Tesla Wall Connectors, Powerwall, and licensed electrical work. Duke Energy delivers power here, and strong EV adoption keeps demand high for charging and the panel upgrades that often come with it.
We pull the City of Raleigh or county permit and run a load calculation before quoting, older Five Points and Oakwood homes may need a 200-amp upgrade before a Level 2 charger, while newer Cary and Apex builds usually have room. We handle the permit and inspection end to end.
