Public Electric Vehicle (EV) Charger Requirements

Owners and operators of public EV chargers that require payment must offer multiple payment options. In addition, payment should not require users to pay a subscription fee or obtain a membership of any kind, however payments may be based on price schedules for such memberships. Owners and operators may impose restrictions on the amount of time a vehicle can use the EV charger.

In addition, owners and operators of public EV chargers must disclose the location and characteristics of each EV charger to the U.S. Department of Energy’s Alternative Fuels Data Center. Information that must be disclosed includes, but is not limited to, address, voltage, and timing restrictions.
