EV Chargers & Panel Upgrades in Olympia & Lacey

Level 2 EV chargers and panel upgrades in Olympia & Lacey — permitted through the City of Olympia or the City of Lacey, inspected, and done right the first time.

Olympia is home base and Lacey is right next door — and both cities run their own electrical permits and inspections instead of using Washington L&I. That's the first thing that shapes a charger or panel job here.

Who issues your permit

Inside Olympia city limits, electrical permits and inspections come from the City of Olympia; inside Lacey city limits, from the City of Lacey. City limits decide it, not your mailing address: a home with an Olympia or Lacey address that sits outside city limits goes through Washington L&I instead.

City of Olympia permits: 601 4th Ave E · 360-753-8314  ·  City of Lacey permits: 420 College St SE · 360-491-5642

Your utility: Puget Sound Energy (PSE)

PSE asks to be contacted before an EV charger is added, and a panel or service change is scheduled with PSE at least five business days ahead — how that works is on our electrical page.

Rebates and credits (as of October 2026)

PSE customers can get up to $300 back on a qualifying ENERGY STAR smart charger, and more if income-qualified — details on our EV charging page. There's no longer a federal tax credit for home chargers.

How we handle it

Every job starts with a load calculation and ends with an inspection. Read how we approach EV charger installs and panel and service upgrades; if solar is on your list too, the same crew can plan it all together.
