EN Webinar: EV Charging at Home
January 15 @ 12:00 pm - 12:30 pm PST
Charging at home is one of the major conveniences of owning an EV and the best way to reduce the costs of driving. The Department of Energy reports that 80% of EV charging happens at home. If you lease or own an electric vehicle (EV) and have off-street parking where you live, you’ll want to take advantage of all the benefits of home charging.
We’ll focus on home charging basics, including the differences between Level 1 and Level 2 chargers and what to consider so EV charging fits with other electrification measures you may be considering without triggering unnecessary expenses. We’ll discuss the process of installing a Level 2 charger at home, the variety of charger options available, and ways to save money on installation and how to take advantage of incentives. We will cover time-of-use rates and how scheduled charging can reduce your overall charging expenses.
Join us for a 30 minute webinar in which we’ll plug into the world of home EV charging:
- What are the practical differences between Level 1 and Level 2 charging?
- Do you need to have a level 2 charger at your home?
- Will an EV charger require a larger electrical panel or a service upgrade?

- How does an EV charger impact other electrification upgrades I am considering like a heat pump or induction stove?
- How much does it cost to install an EV charger at home?
- Are there ways to avoid expensive wiring or electrical work?
