Hawaiian Electric is accepting applications for its Charge Up Commercial pilot program which can help customers reduce the upfront cost of installing electric vehicle charging equipment at locations such as stores, businesses, condominiums, office buildings and fleet and parking facilities.

Under the three-year pilot, Hawaiian Electric will pay for and install equipment, including
transformers, conduit and electric panels, to support customer-purchased charging stations. The
$5 million program aims to help establish up to 30 new charging sites, on O‘ahu, Hawai‘i Island
and in Maui County.

This process is expensive and Charge Up Commercial helps reduce the cost and complexity of installing charging equipment.

Charge Up Commercial application forms and additional information about the program are
available on the Hawaiian Electric website.
