These 3 programs were confirmed against the program's own official page in July 2026. Programs we found that had closed, run out of funding, or could not be confirmed on an official source are deliberately not listed.
Entergy Arkansas eTech Charger Incentive
Entergy Arkansas customers installing an ENERGY STAR Level 2 charger
Up to two chargers, applied for within 180 days of the invoice. Payment takes about 4 to 6 weeks. Arkansas has not launched its federal HEAR rebate.
SWEPCO Level 2 Charger Rebate
SWEPCO residential customers in Arkansas, owners or renters of a single-family home
ENERGY STAR certified Level 2 chargers only. SWEPCO states funding is limited and rebates last only while it does, so confirm before buying.
Ozarks Electric EV Rate Charger Rebate
Ozarks Electric Cooperative members in northwest Arkansas
Tied to enrolling in the co-op's time-of-use EV rate. Note that rate bills your whole home at the off-peak price between 10pm and 5am, not just the car, so check it suits your usage.
Federal programs
Home Electrification and Appliance Rebates (IRA HEAR)
Income-qualified households, administered state by state
Availability varies by state: some programs are live, others are launching in 2026 or fully reserved. Check your state energy office.
The federal tax credits ended
The 25D clean energy credit and 25C home improvement credit ended after December 31, 2025, and the 30C EV charger credit ended for property placed in service after June 30, 2026. Many contractor and comparison sites still advertise a “30% federal credit” that no longer exists. State and utility programs are where the money is now.
Getting the rebate right in Arkansas
- Check eligibility before you buy equipment
- Some programs require approval before work starts
- Most require a licensed electrician's invoice
- Utility programs often need a specific rate plan
- Funding is usually first come, first served
- Keep every invoice, photo and permit
The single most common way homeowners in Arkansas lose a rebate is starting the work before the program approves it. Several utility programs void the incentive if equipment is purchased or installed first. We confirm the sequence with you before anything is ordered.
Frequently asked questions
Entergy Arkansas eTech Charger Incentive ($250 per port); SWEPCO Level 2 Charger Rebate ($250); Ozarks Electric EV Rate Charger Rebate ($250 with the EV rate). Amounts and eligibility are set by each program and change over time, so confirm on the official page before you buy.
No. The One Big Beautiful Bill ended the residential federal clean-energy tax credits: the 25D Residential Clean Energy Credit and the 25C Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit ended after Dec 31, 2025, and the 30C EV charger credit ended for property placed in service after June 30, 2026. The IRA Home Energy Rebates are separately funded and still rolling out state by state, so that program remains. Any site still advertising a 30% federal credit is out of date.
