California multifamily properties may soon have another opportunity to reduce the cost of EV charging deployment.
Communities in Charge, in partnership with the California Energy Commission, is developing Funding Wave 5, expected to launch in Fall 2026. Similar to Funding Wave 4, this wave is expected to provide incentives for Level 2 and Level 1 EVSE in the multifamily housing sector.
For apartment communities, property owners, developers, and property managers, this is a good time to begin preparing before the application window opens.
Why prepare early?
- Funding programs can move quickly once applications open
- Site readiness may affect how smoothly a project moves forward
- Electrical capacity, parking layout, and charger placement should be reviewed early
- A clear deployment plan can help reduce delays once funding becomes available
DynaChrg helps multifamily properties plan EV charging from the site level, not just the charger level.
Our team can help review:
- Site layout and parking needs
- Level 1 vs. Level 2 charging fit
- Electrical infrastructure requirements
- Charger placement and user access
- Long-term operations, uptime, and support
- Revenue and charging strategy after installation
EV charging is more than installing equipment. The right site plan helps your property stay operational, cost-aware, and ready for long-term use.
