Is it good to own an electric car in Arizona?

I currently live in Seattle, Washington, and owning an electric car here has been great. There are tons of charging stations everywhere. I’m planning a move to Arizona for a few months and I’m wondering if I’ll have any trouble driving an electric car there. Is it good to own an electric car in Arizona?

Yes,
Arizona
is a great place to own an electric car. If you’re thinking about buying a new car when you move or even just giving tips to your new neighbors, you should know that Arizona has plenty of
electric vehicle incentives
including:
  • Up to 75% rebate for the installation cost of a charging station from Tucson Electric Power—maximum $500 for a qualified two-way communicating EVSE and $250 for a one-way non-communicating EV charger.
  • A 5% decrease in applicable charges for your EV when charging during off-peak hours.
  • Additional rebates of $1,500 for EV port installation from the Salt River Project or up to $24,000 per port from Tucson Electric Power (TEP) for commercial customers.
