Imagine This Instead...
- Ticket sizes of $1,500–$3,500 on residential Level 2 jobs
- Commercial projects from $8k pedestals to $100k+ networked sites
- Booked out 4–8 weeks from manufacturer-partner and utility leads
- Recurring service and warranty revenue on installed units
- A $5B federal NEVI pipeline and utility rebates funding demand

Marcus Johnson
Atlanta, GA
Solar installer, W-2 employee
$52,000/year
$318,000/year revenue
6 months to full crew
3 crews
"I already knew how to run conduit. This course taught me how to price the work, get on Tesla's installer list, and stop leaving money on the table."
The Journey
Marcus was a W-2 solar installer with 4 years of field experience. He took the course, got his master electrician sponsor, and launched Peach State EV Installs. He hit Tesla Certified Installer status in month 2 and is now running three residential crews doing 40+ installs a month.
Key Strategies Used
- Applied to Tesla, ChargePoint, and Wallbox partner programs week 1
- Bundled solar + EV for existing solar homeowners in his network
- Priced from the estimating spreadsheet, not by gut feel
- Booked every completed job for a Google review and referral ask
Manpreet Kaur
Dallas, TX
Real estate agent
$68,000/year
$504,000/year revenue
4 months to $30k/mo revenue
2 crews
"I don't hold the electrical license — my partner does. I run sales, permits, and project management. That's exactly the model Module 5 walks through."
The Journey
Manpreet partnered with a retired master electrician for a 60/40 profit split and launched Sunbelt Charging Co. She uses her real estate network to feed leads from new-construction builders and property managers while her partner runs the crew.
Key Strategies Used
- Structured a licensed-electrician partnership (Module 5 template)
- Focused on new-construction builder relationships
- Added quarterly commercial service contracts for recurring revenue
- Won a small municipal fleet project in year two
David Chen
Phoenix, AZ
Master Electrician, 15 years
$118,000/year
$720,000/year revenue
3 months to add EV division
4 crews
"I was already doing service and remodel work. This course was the missing piece — how to price EV, when to say no to a job, and how to actually get on the manufacturer partner lists."
The Journey
David already ran Copper Canyon Electric doing general residential and commercial work. After the course he added a dedicated EV division, got EVITP-certified, and now EV represents 60% of company revenue at 70% of the total gross margin.
Key Strategies Used
- Kept his existing electrical business and added an EV crew
- Applied for EVITP certification in month one
- Won a fleet make-ready contract for a regional delivery company
- Sub-hires two commercial installs a month from a general contractor partner

Michael Rivera
Master Electrician (TX) | EVITP-Certified | NABCEP PV Associate | 1,200+ Charging Ports Installed
Michael Rivera is a Texas-licensed master electrician and EVITP-certified EV charger installer who has been in the electrical trades since 2013. He started as an apprentice on residential service calls and moved into commercial and industrial work before the EV wave hit.
When ChargePoint and Tesla started building out installer partner networks in 2019, Michael pivoted his company to focus on EV. Since then he and his crew have completed over 1,200 charging ports across residential Level 2, commercial destination charging, and NEVI-eligible DC fast-charging projects.
He founded EVCharger Academy in 2020 after too many contractors asked him the same estimating and permitting questions. He has since trained 2,847+ students, many of whom now run their own EV install companies. The curriculum is aligned with EVITP and NEC Article 625 and is updated every year as codes and products change.

NEC 625, EVITP, and Utility Compliance
Every module ties the field work back to the code. You'll leave the course knowing exactly what an inspector, utility, and manufacturer expects to see on a compliant EV charger installation.
NEC Article 625 (Electric Vehicle Power Transfer Systems)
The section of the National Electrical Code that governs every EVSE installation. Every install you sell has to comply, and inspectors know it cold.
- 125% continuous-load sizing for EVSE circuits
- Disconnect requirements for chargers > 60A
- GFCI, ground-fault, and personnel-protection rules
- Load management systems and 625.42 exceptions
Utility Notification & Make-Ready
Most utilities require notification for any EV load > 20A. Larger commercial loads need service upgrades or utility make-ready work — miss this and your project stalls.
- Utility notification thresholds by state
- Load studies and demand-factor calculations
- Coordinating utility make-ready for commercial sites
- Time-of-use rate impact on ROI conversations
EVITP Certification
The Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Training Program. Required for federally-funded NEVI projects and most manufacturer installer partner programs.
- Who needs EVITP and who doesn't
- How to schedule, take, and pass the exam
- Manufacturer partner programs that require it
- How to leverage certification on your marketing
Permits, Inspections & Liability
Every install needs a permit and inspection. Skipping either voids warranties, kills utility rebates, and creates massive liability exposure.
- Which jurisdictions accept SolarAPP+ / PermitFlow
- What inspectors look for at rough-in and final
- Documentation you must retain for 7+ years
- General liability + inland marine insurance minimums
NEC Article 625 Quick Reference (2023 NEC)
The most-cited NEC sections for residential and light commercial EV charger installs. The course walks through each one with real load-calc examples.
| NEC Section | What it Covers |
|---|---|
| NEC 625.17(A) | EVSE circuits are continuous loads — size ampacity to 125% of the rated input current |
| NEC 625.42 | 40A+ EVSE requires a disconnect visible from the equipment when > 60A |
| NEC 625.43 | Personnel protection: GFCI or the equivalent protection integral to the EVSE |
| NEC 220.87 | Determine existing load with a 30-day peak demand + 125% factor when adding EV load |
| NEC 625.44 | Cord-connected vs. permanently-connected EVSE — receptacle rules and mounting height |
| NEC 625.54 | GFCI protection for receptacle-connected EVSE rated 150V-to-ground or less and 50A or less |
Reference: NFPA 70 (National Electrical Code)
EVCharger Academy Certificate of Completion
After finishing the course you receive a printable Certificate of Completion documenting your training on NEC Article 625, EVSE product selection, and installer business practices. It is not a substitute for state electrical licensing or EVITP certification — the course walks you through obtaining both — but it demonstrates to homeowners, property managers, and manufacturer partners that you completed structured EV charger installation training.
