According to the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA’s) Program Guidance (PDF), the IIJA distributes $7.5 billion to states to develop a national network of EV charging infrastructure. The government allocates funding annually for five years (figure 1). The program splits EV funds into two buckets:
$5 billion for the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Formula Program
$2.5 billion for the Discretionary Grant Program for Charging and Fueling Infrastructure
