Driving Business Forward
Our Make Ready Program removes the biggest financial hurdle of installing electric chargers at your location by installing, owning and maintaining the electrical infrastructure behind your meter up to the charger. We help you make installing electric charging infrastructure affordable so your business can be prepared for the growing electric vehicle market and support sustainability efforts.
We have temporarily closed our application process to finalize new requirements for the 2023-2025 Make Ready program. Check back in spring, as we hope to begin receiving new applications in April.
Value & Affordability
Program removes significant financial hurdle to electrification.
Walk the Talk
Improve air quality and lower CO2 emissions.
Important Amenity

How the program works:
We will install, own and operate all of the charging infrastructure behind the customer meter all the way up to your charger, including the panel, switchgear, wiring, conduits and disconnects.
- Application. Once you’ve applied to get your charger
installed, one of our experts will work with you to verify the
application and your needs.
- Site review. Our experts will conduct a site review to make sure there is power readily available at your desired charger locations.
- Project planning & contract. Once the site plan is completed, the project can be approved and a contract is signed.
- Installation is completed.
