EV Charger Installation Cost
In Denver, the cost of installing a Level 2 EV charger typically ranges from $900 to $1,850 before any rebates or incentives. This includes the charging unit itself, a dedicated circuit, necessary electrical work, permitting, materials, labor, and taxes.
Many older homes may require an electrical panel upgrade to accommodate the additional power draw of a Level 2 EV charger. We recommend against connecting high-load devices like EV chargers to an outdated or undersized electrical panel. However, if your panel is less than 20 years old and has sufficient capacity, it may be compatible with adding a dedicated EV charging circuit without a full panel replacement.
