Entergy Louisiana, LLC

Entergy Louisiana does not publish an EV-specific residential time-of-use rate. Residential customers take service under the standard Residential Service schedule, a per-kWh energy charge that does not vary by time of day, so charging an EV overnight costs the same per kWh as charging it during the afternoon. None of its residential schedules offers a time-of-use option, and the only off-peak pricing in its filed tariffs is a rider for large industrial customers, not a home EV rate. The closest thing to an off-peak price signal is the Entergy Solutions EV Charging program, which leaves the rate unchanged and instead pays enrolled customers $7 a month when at least 80 percent of their charging happens off-peak, 9pm to 6am on weekdays and any time on weekends and holidays.

The eTech incentive is a flat $250 per port for an ENERGY STAR certified Level 2 charger, paid as a cash incentive, and a residential customer can claim it for up to two chargers if they serve two separate EVs or are installed at two separate locations. Because there is no EV-specific residential rate, the rebate does not require any special tariff; it applies on standard residential service, and the same charger can also be enrolled in the off-peak program if it is an eligible connected model. Commercial customers get the same $250 per port for Level 2, and DC fast chargers earn $750 per port for units under 50 kW and $1,500 per port for units over 50 kW. The off-peak program's monthly incentive is paid by prepaid card twice a year, not as a credit on the electric bill.

Entergy Louisiana is regulated by the Louisiana Public Service Commission and covers most of the state, while the city of New Orleans is served mainly by a separate affiliate, Entergy New Orleans, regulated by the New Orleans City Council. The off-peak charging rewards and larger charger rebates advertised for New Orleans customers belong to that separate utility and do not apply to Entergy Louisiana addresses, and the Entergy Louisiana off-peak program requires an active Entergy Louisiana account. Customers should confirm which utility serves their address before assuming a program applies.
