OLYMPIA, Wash. – Washington state is among almost three dozen states and Puerto Rico that will start receiving federal funds to install electric vehicle charging stations.
President Biden’s huge infrastructure law provides $900 million for expansion of electric vehicle infrastructure and the states can begin receiving the funds now that their plans have been ok’d.
The goal is to install 500,000 new chargers along 53,000 miles of highway across the U.S.
We could start to see new charging stations under the plan in Washington as soon as next summer.
