Verified July 2026
The $3,000 excise credit is a lottery ticket right now (FY26 funds fully depleted; FY27 unconfirmed) and there's a $125/yr fee — the utility charger money is the reliable part.
The $7,500 federal new-EV credit and $4,000 used-EV credit ended September 30, 2025 — and the federal home-charger credit (30C) followed on June 30, 2026. If anyone tells you otherwise, they're reading an old script. (Charger installed on or before June 30, 2026? That one's still claimable on that year's return — IRS Form 8911.)
FY26 funds EXHAUSTED — applications are accepted but only get paid if the FY27 budget refunds the program (authorized through FY27 at $8.25M/yr). Do not count on it at signing.
Residential charger rebate, roughly 50% of cost (confirm current cap on their page).
Residential charger rebates plus time-of-use charging credits.
The catch: Maryland charges EV owners an extra $125/yr at registration.
Fee is $125 BEV / $100 PHEV, inflation-indexed.
