EV charger, battery & panel rebates in Massachusetts
Quick answer
Homeowners in Massachusetts can currently claim 2 verified state and utility incentives for EV charging, home batteries, panel upgrades and solar, plus the federal Home Energy Rebates. Every program below was checked against its own official page and links straight to the application.Massachusetts state and utility programs
These 2 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.
ConnectedSolutions Battery Program
Eversource, National Grid and Cape Light Compact customers with a qualifying battery
Paid for what your battery contributes during summer events, June 1 to Sept 30, up to 60 events. You enroll through your battery manufacturer, not Mass Save directly.
Mass Save HEAT Loan
Massachusetts Eversource, National Grid and Cape Light Compact customers
Mass Save publishes no cash rebate for a panel upgrade. Interest-free financing is the route to that work here, which is worth real money but is not a rebate.
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 Massachusetts
- 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 Massachusetts 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
No Massachusetts-specific EV charger rebate is currently verified, though other incentives below may apply. 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.
