  1. Which funding source, established by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, provides formula grants to states specifically for EV charging infrastructure along designated corridors?

    Answer: NEVI (National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure) Formula Program

    The NEVI Formula Program allocates $5 billion to states for EV charging infrastructure on Alternative Fuel Corridors.

  2. NEVI program requirements mandate that funded DC fast chargers be spaced no more than how many miles apart along Interstate highway corridors?

    Answer: 50 miles

    NEVI standards require DCFC stations every 50 miles along designated Alternative Fuel Corridors to eliminate range anxiety.

  3. Under NEVI program standards, what is the minimum power output required for each DC fast charger port at a funded station?

    Answer: 150 kW

    NEVI standards require each DCFC port to deliver at least 150 kW to support current and near-future EV charging needs.

  4. A fleet operator converting to EVs needs to determine overnight charging requirements. Which metric is most useful for right-sizing the EVSE?

    Answer: Daily miles driven per vehicle and vehicle onboard charger acceptance rate

    Daily mileage converts to required kWh, and the onboard charger rate determines how long charging takes, together sizing the EVSE.

  5. Which type of power agreement allows a business to install EVSE with no upfront capital cost by having a third party own and operate the chargers?

    Answer: Charging-as-a-Service (CaaS) or EVSE-as-a-Service model

    CaaS models let a third-party provider own, install, and maintain chargers while the host site pays per session or a flat fee.

  6. When planning EVSE for a grocery store parking lot, which demand management approach reduces peak power charges most effectively during store hours?

    Answer: Using smart EVSE that caps total site load and throttles sessions during peak demand

    Smart EVSE with site-level demand limiting automatically reduces charge rates during peak periods, capping demand charges.

  7. A municipality is mapping EV charging deserts. Which dataset is most useful for identifying underserved communities lacking public EVSE access?

    Answer: State DMV EV registration records paired with DOE's Alternative Fuels Station Locator data

    Overlaying EV registrations with existing public charger locations from the DOE station locator reveals geographic gaps in charging access.
