Apopka follows Florida Building Code EV-ready provisions and FL §366.94 which preempts local restrictions on residential EV charging. Level 2 home charger installations require an electrical permit.
Homeowners installing Level 2 (240V) EV chargers must pull an electrical permit from the Apopka Building Department. Duke Energy, the local utility, offers rebates through its EV Fast Charger program. Commercial EV charging stations require site plan review and ADA-accessible stall provisions.
