The guidance also enumerated the eligible tracts in Appendix A (by 2015 Census tract GEOIDs) and Appendix B (by 2020 Census tract GEOIDs). The credits cover up to 30% of the cost of installation, up to $1,000 for any single item of residential property and up to $100,000 for any single item of commercial property and are intended to encourage electric vehicle adoption.
