US National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Funding
The National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Funding Program also known as NEVI in short was established after the federal infrastructure investment and jobs act was signed into law. NEVI aims to provide states with adequate capital to set up electric vehicle fast chargers in selected areas.
Why NEVI is important
The setting up of EV chargers in different states is aimed at forming a large network of interconnected EV charging network across the United States. The EvGateway charging station network management includes real-time reports, statistical analysis, 24/7 support, monitoring, remote diagnostics and more. Learn more about it here.
Funding of NEVI is designated to alternative fuel corridors for electric vehicles with the aim of building a national network along the Interstate Highway System. Ten percent of the NEVI funding is set aside annually for the secretary of transportation so as to provide discretionary grants to help fill any gaps within the national network.
NEVI Formula Guide
A NEVI-funded EV charging station solution is exceeded to have a minimum of four 150 kW combined charging system connectors with a total station power of 600kW. EV charging stations are expected to be located 50 miles apart along major roads and highways and at least 1 mile from a freeway exit or highway roadway. Having an electric vehicle infrastructure funding aids EV drivers to have regular access to EV chargers to avoid cases where they may not have access to EV charging stations. In a bid to solve this problem, the charging location map enables you to locate where such chargers are installed. Additionally, EvGateway provides white label solutions such as helping different states and brands to set up more personalized EV network management, price setting, diagnostics, and alerts.
In conclusion, EV charging stations are meant to be non-proprietary, allow open-access payment methods and be publicly available. EvGateway aims to partner up with major stockholders to ensure the acquisition, ensure the EV infrastructure is well coordinated and set up in various states. Drivers who use the EvGateway application are better equipped to handle the charging of their EVs. Drivers can get to the nearest EV stations as well as receive alerts about their vehicle performance easily. The application also assists EV drivers to get 24/7 support from different endpoints. Nevertheless, the NEVI program provides an opportunity for coordination and collaboration across different state agencies to realize an effective EV infrastructure.
