Massachusetts Launches $50M EV Charging Boost

Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey has unveiled a $50 million initiative to enhance electric vehicle charging infrastructure across the US state. Funded by ARPA, the investment aims to boost state and rideshare EV adoption, focusing on curbside chargers, heavy-duty stations, and electrification of ride-share services. The plan includes $12 million for urban and apartment complex chargers, $9 million for heavy-duty charging stations, $8 million for ride-share electrification and another 8 million for Vehicle-To-Everything projects. Additional funds are allocated for state facility charging stations, ensuring broader, more equitable access to clean transportation and supporting Massachusetts’ climate goals.
