A competitive solicitation for electric charging infrastructure to support medium- and heavy-duty on-road vehicles, off-road equipment, marine vessels, and locomotives was opened in mid 2024 and is now closed. Up to $35 million was available for the installation of new - or the expansion of - public and non-publicly accessible electric chargers and infrastructure.
