EV Charger Installation in Myrtle Beach, SC

We install Level 2 EV chargers — Tesla Wall Connector, ChargePoint, Wallbox, and others — from Pine Lakes and the Golden Mile to Market Common, Grande Dunes, and Carolina Forest. Every install gets the dedicated 240V circuit it needs, and we check which utility serves your address before we quote, because the EV programs differ.

Rebates & EV Rates

The Straight Story on Grand Strand EV Incentives

Utility EV programs here change year to year, and the online incentive directories lag behind. Here's where things actually stand, straight from the utilities — not a roundup page:

Santee Cooper RebateIn its most recent documented program year (December 2023 – November 2024), Santee Cooper paid residential customers up to $250 on approved Level 2 chargers — the Tesla Wall Connector and ChargePoint made the approved list — capped at 100 projects, first come, first served. It isn't listed as active on Santee Cooper's site today, so we won't sell it to you as a discount. We confirm what's open before you buy a charger.
ChargeSmart Rates — Live NowWhat Santee Cooper does offer today: ChargeSmart EV rate plans that can cut overnight charging costs by up to 70% versus the standard residential rate. The EV-only EVO plan requires a second meter at the customer's expense — and that dedicated metering and wiring is exactly the work we do.
Horry Electric MembersThe co-op offers no charger rebate, so your real savings come from staying out of the peak window — 3–6 p.m. in the summer months, 6–9 a.m. in winter. One hour of peak charging can set your Peak Charge for the whole month; we program your charger's schedule around it.

When a rebate year has been open, Santee Cooper's application required a licensed South Carolina electrical contractor with a copy of the license, plus photos of the installed charger and purchase receipts, filed within 30 business days of the install. If a program reopens, we hand you that whole package with your invoice. And fair warning: South Carolina has no state EV incentive, and the federal home-charger tax credit ended June 30, 2026 — if a sales pitch leans on either one, walk away.

Common EV Charger Install Questions

What's Involved in Your EV Install

An EV charger is more than plugging in a box — it's a dedicated 240V branch circuit, often a new breaker, sometimes a panel upgrade. At the beach, placement matters too: a garage in Carolina Forest is one job, an exterior mount a few blocks off Ocean Boulevard fighting salt air is another. We assess all of it before we quote so you don't get a half-done install:

  • Tesla Wall Connector
  • ChargePoint Home Flex
  • Wallbox & Other Brands
  • Hardwire or NEMA 14-50
  • Dedicated 240V Circuit
  • Panel Capacity Check
  • Weatherproof Coastal Mounts
  • City or County Permit + Inspection

Driving a Tesla? See our dedicated Tesla Wall Connector installation page. Panel out of room? Our Myrtle Beach panel upgrade crew folds the swap into the same project.

Service Areas

Available Across the Grand Strand

Myrtle Beach anchors the 60-mile Grand Strand, from Little River down to Winyah Bay — and it anchors our beach service area too. We install chargers across the city's ZIP codes (29572, 29575, 29577, 29579, 29588) and the towns below, plus Little River, Garden City, and Pawleys Island. Keep in mind 29579 and 29588 stretch into the unincorporated county, where the permit office and often the utility change — we sort that out before we quote. Something urgent instead? Our Myrtle Beach emergency electricians answer 24/7.

Frequently Asked

Myrtle Beach EV Charger FAQs

Is the Santee Cooper EV charger rebate still available?

Not that we can verify right now. In its most recent documented program year — December 1, 2023 through November 30, 2024 — Santee Cooper paid up to $250 on approved Level 2 chargers, capped at 100 projects, first come, first served. The rebate no longer appears on Santee Cooper's live site, so we don't advertise it as active. We confirm what's open when we quote your install, and if a program year reopens, we put together the license copy, install photos, and itemized invoice the application has required.

Am I a Santee Cooper customer or a Horry Electric member?

It depends on your exact address, not your ZIP code. Santee Cooper, the state-owned utility, serves homes in Myrtle Beach, North Myrtle Beach, Surfside Beach, and the city of Conway, while Horry Electric Cooperative serves nearly 100,000 meters across the unincorporated county — Socastee, the Highway 707 corridor, and rural Conway. Tell us where you are and we'll know which utility's EV programs apply before we quote.

Do I need a permit for an EV charger in Myrtle Beach?

Yes — a new 240V circuit is permitted work. Inside city limits, the permit runs through the City of Myrtle Beach Construction Services Department, which staffs its own electrical inspector. Outside city limits — Carolina Forest, Socastee, Forestbrook — it goes through Horry County Code Enforcement in Conway instead. We pull the permit and schedule the inspection in both jurisdictions.

How much does an EV charger install cost?

Most home installs fall between $650 and $1,800, depending on distance from the panel, hardwire vs. plug-in, and whether your panel has a spare 240V slot. We quote flat-rate after an $89 diagnostic visit — credited back on any job of $275 or more.

I'm on Horry Electric — does it matter when I charge?

More than most members realize. Horry Electric bills a Peak Charge on your single highest hour of use during peak hours — 3–6 p.m. April through October, 6–9 a.m. November through March. A Level 2 charger running through that window can set your demand charge for the month. The co-op has no charger rebate, so off-peak charging is where the savings are — we set your charger's schedule to stay out of the peak window.
