Jersey Central Power & Light

JCP&L does not publish a standalone EV-specific time-of-use rate. The one open EV rate feature is a residential Basic Generation Service time-of-use credit on Rider BGS-RSCP for customers on the RS, RST and RGT classes with a program-qualified smart Level 2 charger. It pays a 2 cent per kWh net credit for charging during off-peak hours, where net means off-peak charging kWh minus on-peak charging kWh, and no credit is earned if the net is negative. Customers must buy their generation supply through Basic Generation Service. The separate residential off-peak credit closed on June 30, 2025, and customers already enrolled in it were moved to the BGS credit. JCP&L's pages do not state the off-peak hours, so check the Rider before relying on a charging schedule.

The make-ready side of EV Driven is closed. The residential customer make-ready rebate, which paid up to $1,500 for customer electrical work plus up to $5,500 in utility make-ready, ended on June 30, 2025. The multifamily, workplace, public Level 2 and public DC fast charging make-ready incentives have since reached maximum funding and no longer accept applications, with no announced replacement. JCP&L's FAQ says customers may still submit applications for the credit, but the program guide ties it to the original July 15, 2026 termination date unless the BPU authorizes an extension, so confirm its status with JCP&L. The 2 cent credit above does not depend on those rebates, so a customer who never received a rebate can still enroll in it.

JCP&L is a FirstEnergy operating company regulated by the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities, and EV Driven was approved as a fixed four-year program (2022 to 2026) rather than an open-ended offering. The original BPU-approved term ran through July 15, 2026. In May 2026 the BPU directed New Jersey's electric utilities to petition for an extension of their light-duty EV programs, to run until the earlier of one year after approval or December 31, 2027, without budget increases. JCP&L states it does not expect to reopen the closed sub-programs unless the BPU directs it to, so confirm current status with JCP&L before planning a project around any incentive.
