U.S. Launches Record $1.3 Billion EV Charging Network Expansion

$1.3 billion is now available for expanding the U.S. electric vehicle (EV) charging network, targeting both urban and rural areas. The funding, part of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, is the largest grant for EV charging in U.S. history. Applications are open until August 28, with over $520 million reserved for prior applicants. This initiative supports President Biden’s goal to create a national network of 500,000 public EV charging stations to halve greenhouse emissions by 2030.
