PowerUp NJ is designed to compensate eligible customers for supporting the grid during high-demand periods. What that looks like depends on the equipment—and the approved program pathway.
The announced framework includes Block 1 of Phase 2 of the Garden State Energy Storage Program for eligible residential and small-commercial batteries.
The state lists battery electric vehicles that charge at home and smart home EV chargers among device types expected to be eligible. Managed charging can shift or pause charging without discharging the vehicle.
V2H powers your home from a compatible EV. V2G sends power back to the grid. The November order leaves V2G compensation to the long-term framework; it is not part of initial Block 1 enrollment.
A program is only one part of the project. We connect your backup goals with equipment compatibility, electrical integration, permitting and commissioning.
Plan around the loads you want to support, available installation space, existing solar and the home’s electrical system.
Equipment selection and any program eligibility must be checked against final requirements before you commit.Explore battery storage installation →
Use a compatible EV as a home backup source with the right bidirectional equipment, controls and electrical installation.
V2H backup is a separate capability—not proof of V2G export authorization or PowerUp NJ incentive eligibility.Explore vehicle-to-home backup →Photographs show actual EVCIA installation work. They do not represent PowerUp NJ enrollment, approved program equipment or grid-export results. No manufacturer endorsement is implied.
Leave your email. Add your project interest, ZIP code and electric utility if you know them. No bills, photos or deposit required.
We’ll email meaningful program developments and installation opportunities. You can leave the list at any time.
When you’re ready, review compatibility, backup priorities, electrical scope and applicable program terms before deciding whether to move forward.
Joining does not reserve funding, eligibility, an installation slot or a place in an official program queue. No purchase commitment.
It is early. Here is what we can say now—and what still needs to be confirmed.
Join the installation interest list →No. The official program page says PowerUp NJ is under development and is not yet open for enrollment. Our form collects interest in EVCIA installation services and updates; it is not an NJBPU, utility or aggregator application.
Not necessarily. A battery electric vehicle can participate in managed charging by shifting when it charges, without sending power out of its battery. V2H powers the home; V2G exports to the grid. The November 12 order leaves V2G compensation to the long-term framework and does not include V2G in initial Block 1 enrollment. We welcome interest in both backup installations and future grid-service opportunities.
We are not quoting a household payout or payback period. The announced storage framework is performance-based. Actual customer economics depend on approved utility implementation, eligible capacity, measured performance, provider agreements, installation costs and other applicable terms. Do not treat a headline incentive rate as a guaranteed payment to you.
Do not buy equipment solely on the assumption that it will qualify for a future program. We can review your backup or charging goals now, but program eligibility, supported models, interconnection and any incentive compatibility must be confirmed separately before a program-dependent purchase.
Yes. Select your area of interest and tell us your utility if known. Existing equipment is not automatically eligible; we will need to review the actual model, configuration, installation and program rules when a relevant pathway is available.
No. These are distinct program offerings with different requirements. Our PSE&G GridSmart page covers that program separately. Do not assume that benefits can be combined or that one program’s approved equipment qualifies for another.
EV Charging Installers of America will email you relevant PowerUp NJ developments and installation opportunities. We are an independent electrical contractor, not the state or your utility. To leave the list, reply to an update or email info@evcharginginstallers.com with “PowerUp NJ unsubscribe.”
