The National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Formula Program, established by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill of 2022, provides funding to states for the development of electric vehicle charging infrastructure. The program requires that EV charging stations must be non-proprietary, allow for open-access payment methods, and be publicly available. Additionally, the program sets minimum standards and requirements for projects funded under NEVI Formula Program.
“The NEVI program has opened up an unprecedented opportunity to advance the e-mobility transition in the United States, leading to a manufacturing boom in the country,” said Tritium CEO Jane Hunter. “As we continue to scale production at our Tennessee facility, Tritium is proud to deliver a product that allows states to put these funds to use and provide U.S. drivers with the EV infrastructure they need.
The discussion centered around topics such as workforce development, Middle Tennessee’s e-mobility sector, and the transformative potential of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. Furthermore, they discussed the NEVI program’s role in creating manufacturing opportunities across the United States, including for companies like Tritium.
