The important new directive asks states to create a network of electric vehicle chargers, and comes with billions in funding.
released late last week, the federal government laid out the details for a $5 billion investment in public electric vehicle charging infrastructure over the next five years.
“It’s the single largest investment in charging infrastructure in the United States,” says Nick Nigro, founder ofWhat’s the plan? The administration’s goal is to install charging stations at least every 50 miles along these roads, and each of the stations will house at least four fast chargers that can supply 150 kW of power, making them similar to Tesla superchargers.
States will draw up their plans for roughly where they plan to install stations, and submit them to the federal government by August 1, which will approve them by the end of September. Then the states can start spending.After designated highways are covered, additional money can be used to install chargers in public places, such as gas stations and malls. And after the $5 billion gets spent, there’s the additional $2.5 billion that can be designated for rural and underserved areas.
