Developed and administered by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Energy Star is a US government-backed symbol for energy efficiency.

The blue Energy Star label provides simple, credible, and unbiased information that consumers, businesses, and government agencies rely on to make informed decisions when purchasing appliances and electronics. The certification will provide added brand confidence to Wallbox, with recent data showing that 68% of consumers knowingly purchased an Energy Star certified product this past year.

Pulsar Plus, Wallbox’s global best-selling smart home EV charger, which is compatible with all EVs, is now produced entirely in the US at Wallbox’s North-American manufacturing facility in Arlington, Texas.

Energy Star certified chargers are eligible for a number of residential and commercial incentive programs across the US. Users can find an outline of current EV incentives through the Wallbox EV Incentive finder and Wallbox recommends users reach out to their local utility provider for more detailed guidance on rebates.
