I own a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle and while it only gets about 25 miles on battery, it helps augment the gas mileage in hybrid mode and does run on battery only as well, which is perfectly fine for me and has saved me a lot.

Last year I caught wind of the MGE EV ChargePoint Discount.

Any other chargers that are not a MGE ChargePoint charger are two dollars an hour plus a $0.25 fee & $.60 a. Kilowatt hour. For me that equals about an equivalent four+ dollars a gallon, about the same as gas currently.

With MGE they charge about $.13 a kilowatt hour. So 25 miles in my vehicle equates to about a gallon and a quarter. Cost is $1.89 for me.

Just go to the website and you can fill out a form and get a code that you put into your ChargePoint account. There’s no cost for doing this.

I don’t work for any of these companies, and I didn’t see any post in the sub about it so I thought I would share for any people who use level two chargers.

I do not know about level three chargers and costs.

I think you do need to be an MGE customer but not just for electricity. I am a natural gas-only customer and I am still eligible.

Anyway, I thought this might be a hot tip for someone who charges a lot at public charging stations and does not know what the program.
