Highlights
-
About 80 percent of charging happens at home. When you’re on the go, you can use public charging options which continue to open across the country.
-
A good charging experience is one that is safe and reliable. Public agencies and private sector organizations are collaborating on standards related to adapters and charging connectors.
-
How do we make progress toward a charging experience that works the first time? See the latest research from scientists and private sector experts on areas like payment processing, user interface experience, vehicle to charger communication, and diagnostic data sharing.
Accelerating an electrified transportation system that is affordable, convenient, equitable, reliable, and safe.
We are working with states, communities, and the private sector to build a national, interoperable EV charging network. This means that the growing network of public chargers benefits from a shared set of agreed-upon reliability, accessibility, speed, and security standards. In other words, we’re aiming to make it easy to choose mobility options, whether you’re in an urban area or rural town.
This effort includes:
- Providing technical assistance to states, communities, tribal governments, transit agencies, and school districts.
- Advancing standards and reliability on everything from charging software application program interfaces (APIs) to charger uptime.
- Creating tools based on proven data sets to help deploy EV charging infrastructure.
- Developing options and programs that support new private sector business models, community and urban charging, and electric utility infrastructure utility programs and policies.
Quarterly Update: Public Charging Infrastructure
The National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Formula Program provides funding to states to strategically deploy EV charging infrastructure and to establish an interconnected network to facilitate data collection, access, and reliability. The Joint Office of Energy and Transportation provides quarterly updates on this program including data on publicly available charging ports, State award, and deployment progress.
