An EV Charger Is an Electrical Project First
A charger is only as capable as the panel behind it. This is where most EV charger installers stop short. At ALA Renovations, electrical, solar, and charger installation happen under the same project and the same license.
Electrical panel capacity, most Level 2 installations require available capacity on a 200A panel or a panel upgrade
Load calculation, we confirm your existing service can carry the charger before any work is scheduled
Solar and battery integration, chargers configured to draw from surplus solar or stored energy
LADBS permitting and utility coordination handled entirely in-house
How EV Charger Installation Works, Our 5-Step Process
Site Assessment and Load Calculation
We evaluate your electrical panel, available capacity, charger location, and distance from the panel. We run a full load calculation so we know before quoting whether your service supports the charger you want.
Charger Selection and System Design
We match the charger to your vehicle, your driving pattern, and your existing solar or battery system. If your panel needs an upgrade, we scope that in the same project rather than discovering it mid-installation.
Permitting and Rebate Applications
We prepare drawings and pull the LADBS permit, and we prepare your LADWP or SCE rebate paperwork alongside it. Your job is to approve the plan, ours is everything else.
Professional Installation and Testing
Our licensed team runs the dedicated circuit, mounts and hardwires the unit, and commissions the charger to NEC standards. Every connection is tested before we leave the property.
Inspection, Activation, and Rebate Submission
We coordinate the city inspection, configure scheduled charging and solar integration, and submit your rebate documentation. You receive a working charger and a completed application, not a folder of forms.

EV Charger Rebates and Incentives in Los Angeles
Los Angeles has some of the strongest EV charger incentives in the country, and eligibility depends on your utility, your household, and your address. We confirm which programs apply to you during the assessment and handle the applications as part of your installation.
LADWP Residential EV Charger Rebate
LADWP account holders on a residential rate plan may receive a rebate toward the purchase and installation of a qualifying Level 2 charger. Customers enrolled in Lifeline or EZ-SAVE qualify for a higher amount. An additional rebate is available for installing a dedicated EV time-of-use meter.
SCE Charge Ready Home
Southern California Edison offers rebates toward electrical panel upgrades needed to support a Level 2 charger. The program is limited to income-qualified households and residents of designated disadvantaged communities within SCE territory.
Federal Tax Credit, Section 30C
The federal Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit applied to qualifying residential installations placed in service on or before June 30, 2026. Federal eligibility has since closed for new installations, though LADWP and SCE programs remain available.

What Our Clients Say
Start Your EV Charger Installation in Los Angeles
A standard outlet was never designed to charge a car.

ALA Renovations handles the whole project: charger selection, load calculation, LADBS permitting, installation, and LADWP or SCE rebate coordination.
