New resource tracks utility, state, and federal programs funding electric cart purchases and charging infrastructure across 32 US jurisdictions
ENEROC USA, CITY OF INDUSTRY, CA (July 8, 2026) — a free, searchable database of electric vehicle incentive programs now gives golf course operators, resort managers, municipalities, and cart dealers a single place to find funding available for electric golf cars, low-speed vehicles (LSVs), and charging infrastructure. The Industrial EV Incentives Database is published and updated by Eneroc USA and available at enerocusa.com/support, no registration required.
The database tracks programs across 32 US jurisdictions and reveals a landscape where utilities, not federal agencies, are the most active funders of fleet electrification.
Utilities Lead the Funding
Roughly half the programs in the database are run or funded by utilities. For the golf and LSV market, Entergy eTech is the most direct example: the program pays $150 per electric golf cart to customers in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas who replace IC units or expand their fleets, with a separate $25 per cart dealer bonus for participating dealers.
Charging infrastructure programs extend the opportunity further — and apply broadly, regardless of vehicle type. Duke Energy covers 100% of make-ready electrical costs (panel, conduit, trenching) for commercial customers across six states. Dominion Energy funds 50% of make-ready upfront in Virginia, scaling to 100% for facilities in designated disadvantaged communities. National Grid covers up to 100% of make-ready infrastructure in Massachusetts and New York. NV Energy pays up to $5,000 per Level 2 connector in Nevada. ComEd offers up to $3,750 per port, capped at $30,000 per site, in Illinois.
For any operation installing or upgrading cart charging infrastructure, these utility programs can eliminate or significantly offset the electrical build-out cost before a single cart is purchased.
USDA REAP: A Significant Opportunity for Rural Operations
Rural golf courses, resorts, and camps have access to the USDA Rural Energy for America Program (REAP), which remains active. REAP provides grants covering up to 50% of project cost — up to $1 million — for rural small businesses investing in energy upgrades. A charging infrastructure project for a cart fleet qualifies. Stacked with a utility make-ready rebate, REAP can substantially reduce total project cost.
Federal Credits: What Changed
Two IRS credits previously served as a national baseline for commercial EV fleets — including commercially operated golf cars and LSVs:
- 45W Commercial Clean Vehicle Credit: Up to $7,500 per vehicle under 14,000 lbs.
- 30C Charging Infrastructure Credit: Up to $100,000 per installation in qualifying census tracts.
Both were sunset by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (July 4, 2025). The 45W ended September 30, 2025; the 30C closes June 30, 2026. State and utility programs are now carrying more of the load.
A Tool for Dealers, Too
Programs in the database frequently route payments through dealers at the point of sale — Entergy’s dealer bonus model being one example. Dealers who understand available programs and guide customers through applications gain a competitive edge that goes beyond product and price.
About the Database
The Industrial EV Incentives Database is searchable by state, equipment type, program type, and recipient category. It is actively maintained as programs open, close, and change funding levels.
