Description (excerpt):
The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act1 (IIJA or Act) establishes two funding programs for new electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure investment: the National Electric Vehicle Formula Program and the Discretionary Grant Program for Charging and Fueling Infrastructure. Depending on their locations, retail businesses may be eligible as site hosts for both programs if they meet specified conditions.
The Department of Energy (DOE) and Department of Transportation (DOT) are jointly overseeing the planning, funding, implementation, charger utilization data collection, and evaluation of these two programs. These agencies formed the Joint Office of Energy and Transportation (Joint Office), which will guide and oversee the NEVI Formula Program. DOT will provide guidance for the Corridor Charging Grant Program by September 30, 2022, and will oversee its implementation.
