The Biden-Harris Administration has awarded nearly $150 million to 24 grant recipients in 20 states to repair and replace existing electric vehicle charging infrastructure, according to a press release. The grants will be used to repair or replace nearly 4,500 existing EV charging ports and in some cases, bring them up to code.
These targeted investments complement the tens of billions in federal and private sector funding that is building out a national EV charging network. The announcement is the latest milestone towards the President's goal of bringing at least 500,000 public EV chargers online by the end of the decade.
